Abstract
Abstract Surfactants are provided which are useful in a variety of food products. The surfactants are selected from the group consisting of (1) monoesters of succinic acid or adipic acid and an ester of lactic acid and a fatty alcohol, (2) esters of lactic acid and a half ester of succinic acid or adipic acid and a fatty alcohol, (3) ester products prepared by subjecting a mixture of lactic acid, succinic acid or lactic acid, and a fatty alcohol to esterification conditions, and (4) calcium, sodium, and potassium salts of monoester (1), ester (2), and ester product (3).
