TITLE: TEXTURED FOOD PRODUCT. ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Textured food products having a fibrous, lamellar or striated structure are produced by preparing a mixture of nutritious ingredients and water containing an anionic gelling agent, causing the gelling agent to set or form a gel in the mixture by reaction with a non-toxic metal ion and freezing the mixture with the formation of ice crystals either before, during or after the set of the gelling agent. Divalent or polyvalent metal ions are preferred because these form thermally irreversible gels which maintain in the finished product the textured structure obtained by freezing even in the absence of heat coagulable materials It is, however, preferred to include proteins in the composition for nutritional purposes and the resulting simulated meat products are stable to canning processes. Preferred ionic gelling agents are pectates and alginates.
