  • Publication number: 20200107566
    Abstract: A savory, healthy cruciferous vegetable formula includes cruciferous vegetable, aromatic, edible fruit ingredient, acid ingredient and seasoning. In one embodiment the formula is a pourable, dense, finely grained cruciferous vegetable condiment. In another embodiment, the formula is a carbonated cruciferous vegetable beverage. In one method a cruciferous vegetable condiment is produced by preparing, cooking and finely pureeing the nutrient-rich ingredients, then hot fill processing and packaging the shelf-stable condiment. In another method, a carbonated cruciferous vegetable beverage is produced by preparing, cooking, cooling and carbonating the nutrient-rich ingredients, then cold fill processing and packaging the shelf-stable beverage.

  • Publication number: 20100169233
    Abstract: A software system that uses the rigor and rules of business process automation to capture and structure organizational expertise, processes, and procedures—the non-automatable activities and actions of an organization—into a single, common, enterprise-wide, information framework. The capture function is engineered for usability and structured to reflect the patterns and semantics of business users rather than imposing software or process terminology. The produced framework generates a process-driven, centralized taxonomy of information and resources as business requirements are captured. The framework delivers users an organization-specific context to activities and information to be used for learning, training, reference, improvisation, collaboration, and operations.
