Method for making a marbled meat pet food
Abstract
Abstract An apparatus is described for producing a substantially solid semi-moist animal food resembling marbled meat. The apparatus consists of a pipe closed at one end and having a number of holes immediately adjacent to the closed end. A second pipe completely encloses the first pipe. A process is described for producing a substantially solid semimoist animal food resembling marbled meat. In the process, a white-colored semi-moist animal food material is extruded into one of the pipes of the above apparatus and a red-colored semimoist animal food material is extruded into the other pipe. A plurality of small strands of the material in the inner pipe is injected into the material in the larger pipe and this mixture is then extruded in a back and forth motion onto a moving conveyor.
