PREPARATION OF NON-AGGLOMERATED SEMI-MOIST PET FOOD ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE There is disclosed a method for the manufacture of a non-agglomerated, semi-moist, solid pet food having a coating of preservatives and/or appearance and flavor enhancers. The solid pet food typically contains a protein source such as poultry meal, soybean meal and the like and cereal product such as corn or wheat flour in significant proportions which various chicken, meat or fish by-products as flavor sources and a sufficient quantity of a water binding material to function as a bacteriostatic additive. This product is conventionally extruded to produce a product having about 20 weight percent water and it is often desired to coat the product after its manufacture with materials such as antimycotic additives or flavor or appearance enhancers. This invention comprises the holding of the coated solid product for a sufficient time to permit the coating to become absorbed into the solid product, typically for a period of from 0.5 to about 24 hours and, thereafter, tumbling or agitating the product to break up agglomerates prior to packaging of the solid products. -1-
