Abstract

Simulated cheese analogs which are reduced in calories and animal fat are produced by combining protein derived from aged or non-aged low-fat or full-fat cheese, dry-powdered bland flavored milk protein, vegetable protein, or mixtures thereof; water; cheese flavors, an emulsifying salt; an acidulant, if desired; adjuvant materials, if desired; and a fatty substance which is non-digestible, partially digestible, or is lower in net caloric efficiency than butterfat, animal fat, or vegetable fat.
