Abstract

A heterogeneous edible spread having a water-in-oil composition and a varigate composition is disclosed. The water-in-oil composition and the varigate composition have humectant concentrations that result in each of the compositions having substantially the same water activity, resulting in a spread having superior appearance, taste and texture.
