Abstract: According to one embodiment, a protein product may include a mixture of water and particulate matter comprising protein. The mixture may include medium chain aldehydes and pyrazines. The ratio of a total concentration of medium chain aldehydes in the mixture to a total concentration of pyrazines in the mixture, as determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, may be greater than or equal to 0.5 and less than or equal to 45. The mixture may also include from about 0.5 wt. % to about 8.0 wt. % total protein by weight of the mixture. In addition, the mixture may include from about 40 wt. % to about 98 wt. % water by weight of the mixture and less than or equal to about 4.0 wt. % oil and fat by weight of the mixture. The particulate matter may have an average particle size less than or equal to about 50 ?m.

Abstract: Food and beverage products including natural stabilizers, and particularly to replace EDTA, are provided. In particular, the food products comprise oil-in-water emulsions and the natural stabilizers include high molecular weight polymers which are effective to extend the shelf-life of the products.

Abstract: A protein product, such as a beverage or the like, includes a mixture of water, a paste comprising protein, pH buffers, and a stabilizer. In particular, the protein product includes from about 40.00 wt. % to about 98.00 wt. % water, from about 0.50 wt. % to about 35.00 wt. % protein paste, from about 0.10 wt. % to about 0.50 wt. % sodium bicarbonate, from about 0.30 wt. % to about 0.80 wt. % calcium carbonate, and from about 0.10 wt. % to about 0.80 wt. % stabilizer. The pH of the protein product is from about 7.60 to about 8.40. The protein paste may be derived from peanuts processed at a heat load of greater than 3 and less than or equal to 2000.
