PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A FORMED HIGH MOISTURE PET FOOD PRODUCT Abstract of the Disclosure A process for the production of a pet food product resembling a "cooked" hamburger patty is set forth, which has a moisture content exceeding about 40% by weight and is stabilized against bacterial and mycotic penetration comprising: grinding raw animal meat into particles of a substantially uniform size, heating the same and impregnating the meat with a preservative composition which comprises a mixture of a bacteriostatic agent and an edible antimycotic. A critically defined range of expanded protein pieces are added to the final product which is between about 25 to 90% by volume of the product. The addition of a critically defined percentage of the expanded protein pieces provides a realistic chunky appearance and gives the product a shear value which exceeds about .080 ft. lb./gram. The bacteriostatic agent is preferably an organic acid selected from the group consisting of succinic acid, pyruvic acid, fumaric acid, adipic acid, glucono-.DELTA.-lactone, tartaric acid, lactic acid, citric acid, malic acid and mixtures thereof or an acid salt such as sodium hexametaphosphate and calcium acetate. The edible antimycotic is preferably a mixture of sorbic acid and salts thereof.
