Abstract: A process of forming a crispy pressed snack includes combining at least one expandable plant product having a pre-gelled starch with a plurality of inclusions to form a mixture. The process also includes pressing the mixture together in a mold while applying heat at a temperature less than 220° C. to the mold to steam-cook the inclusions and cook the pre-gelled starch in the expandable plant product. The process further includes expanding the mold to reduce the pressure in the mold, thereby expanding the expandable plant product and forming the crispy pressed snack. A crispy pressed snack includes a mixture including an expanded plant product and pieces of at least one steamed low-starch vegetable. The steamed low-starch vegetable is present at about 10% to about 20%, by weight of the mixture. A starch of the expanded plant product holds the mixture together.

Abstract: A method for analytics presentation on large displays may include receiving, at a client device, login information for a user, retrieving, from a database, user preference information for the user, obtaining an initial set of information cards based on the user preference information, transmitting the initial set of information cards to a shared display connected to the client device, receiving, from the user by way of the client device, a user request for additional or alternative information, obtaining a modified set of information cards based on the user request, and transmitting the modified set of information cards to the shared display.

Abstract: A coated particle may include a food particle coated by a carbohydrate. The coated particle may have an average particle size from about 10 ?m to about 250 ?m. The food particle may include a relatively bitter component (e.g., cocoa) and a protein component (e.g., whey protein, soy protein, rice protein, fava bean protein, and/or milk protein). A weight ratio of bitter component to protein component may be about 3 or greater. The food particle may also include a starch, such as rice starch. Additionally, the coated particle may have a surface area fraction of the carbohydrate that is greater than an average weight fraction of the carbohydrate. For example, the surface area fraction of the carbohydrate may be from about 30% to about 80%. In addition, the coated particle may have a substantially non-spherical and irregular shape. The coated particle may be prepared via a spray drying process.
