DENSE ELASTIC SOFT MOIST PET FOOD PRODUCT AND PROCESS OF PRODUCING THE SAME Abstract of the Disclosure This invention relates to a soft moist pet food pro- duct having a dense, elastic structure and a process for pro- ducing the same. The product is formulated from a proteinaceous farinaceous mixture having a level of farinaceous component of at least about 40% by weight of the pet food product, typically 60 to 85% by weight of the pet food product. The moisture content is adjusted to a level sufficient to extrude the mixture and extruded under conditions of elevated temperature and pressure sufficient to convert the mixture to a thermoplastic or flowable state. The mixture while in a flowable condition is extruded through a restricted orifice into a confinement zone and confined while in a flowable state. The mixture in this condition is injected into a compression zone wherein the mixture is cooled to a product temperature of about 100 - 180°F, compressed and formed into a product having a dense elastic structure.
