Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2273033A] A snack product comprises dried pieces of food in the form of chips or flakes having a preferred maximum thickness of 0.8mm and a preferred maximum moisture content of up to 5% by weight. The flakes have a slight crunchy texture and are also chewy. Any kind of food may be used to form the flakes, although beef is preferred. The flakes provide a healthy alternative to conventional extruded and fried snacks. A process for making the snack product comprises chilling and then slicing food to form chips or flakes, preferably to such a thickness that the flakes will curl when dried, and then drying the flakes to a moisture content of up to 5% by weight.
