  • Manufacturing Technology of Ready-To-Eat Cereals
    This chapter is taken from the book Breakfast Cereals and How They Are Made, Second Edition which is available in print and online from AACC International PRESS. Chapter 2 Manufacturing Technology ofReady-to-Eat Cereals ROBERT B. FAST Ready-to-eat (RTE) breakfast cereals are processed grain formula­ tions suitable for human consumption without further cooking in the home. They are relatively shelf-stable, lightweight, and convenient to ship and store. They are made primarily from corn, wheat, oats, or rice, in about that order of the quantities produced, usually with added flavor and fortifying ingredients. Hot breakfast cereals, on the other hand, are made primarily from oats or wheat; those made from corn or rice are of minor importance, being produced in relatively small quantities. The original hot cereals required cooking in the home before they were ready for consumption, but now some varieties are preprocessed so that they are ready for consumption with the addition of either hot water or milk to the cereal in the bowl. RTE cereals originated in the United States in the latter part of the nineteenth century. At first developed and used as healthful vegetar­ ian foods in a clinical context, they soon caught on with the general population, and an entire industry was thereby spawned (Fast, 1999). Their processing typically involves first cooking the grain with flavor materials and sweeteners. Sometimes the more heat-stable nutri­ tional fortifying agents are added before cooking. Two general cooking methods are employed in the industry-direct steam injection into the grain mass in rotating batch vessels and continuous extrusion cook­ ing.

Somogyi Special thanks to three 1FT members who wrote special articles about their acquaintences and experiences: Al Clausi John Powers Jack Francis Editing by 1FT Staff copywrite 2000 ood science is a somewhat odd amalgam of scientific disciplines, including basic sciences, "soft" science, culinary arts and its out• growths, chemistry, biology, economics, agronomics, microbiology, and engineering. There are others, but "food science" is the common theme that turns traditional foods into a variety of specialty products and makes them tasty, safe, available, and convenient. Food supply and security are sometimes prominent in the roster, and other disciplines take their place from time to time. It is rare that food science teaches something truly new-but the "devil is in the details," and food science takes knowledge to a supremely practical use. Between the early 1900s and the present, food science and its cousins have provided Americans with the safest food supply the world has ever known, as well as the most plentiful and the least expensive. The other developed countries of the world have also been provided with the same kind of food supply. The underdeveloped and developing countries of the world have an improving food situation, and the information gained during the long race toward food security for developing countries has been extremely helpful to developed countries as well.

The printing of the Chronology was made possible by a publishing grant which the Detroit Public Library received from McGregor Fund. On behalf of educational institutions and individual users who will benefit through the issuance of this publication, the Library wishes to acknowledge its own and their indebtedness to McGregor Fund for invaluable and considerable financial assistance realized through this grant. INTRODUCTION As PART OF ITS CONTRIBUTION to the celebration of Detroit's 250th anni- versary, the Library undertook the preparation of a Chronology for the period 1701 to 1951. The object of the Chronology is to show Detroit in its world setting, so that events in Detroit can be viewed in the light of events of national and international importance and these larger happen- ings in turn as reflected in Detroit. "Detroit in its world setting - a 250 year chronology - 1701-1951" Page | 1 | of 296 Since the Chronology covers so many years and so many subjects, each item is obviously brief and great selectivity was necessary in choosing the events to be included.

  • 1 Presented to the Baltimore Lecture Group, January 31, 2007 HOW
    Presented to the Baltimore Lecture Group, January 31, 2007 HOW SHREDDED WHEAT’S COMPETITION GOT TO CALL THEIR CEREAL SHREDDED WHEAT By: Jim Astrachan Good afternoon to each of you. I am very pleased to be here today to tell you a true story about the intersection of trademark law, the invention of cold breakfast cereal and a landmark decision of the United States Supreme Court written by Justice Brandeis that cost NABISCO the exclusive rights to manufacture a pillow shaped breakfast cereal and call it SHREDDED WHEAT. Trademarks. Trademarks, sometimes called brands or just marks, are one of the most valuable types of intellectual property; they instantly identify a product’s source – its maker. They help us to decide what to buy. When we see the word NIKE or the NIKE SWISH on a pair of shoes, we know who made the shoe. That trademark allows us to judge whether the manufacturer is reliable and whether its products are desirable or are to be avoided. A mark 66436 1 © 2007 Astrachan Gunst Thomas, P.C. is a shorthand way to describe the attributes of the product and identify its source. One hundred words are condensed into a word, logo or slogan. Sometimes a manufacturer has done such a great job marketing its product under a mark, or such a poor job in policing how the public uses its mark, that the trademark comes to mean the product and not the source of the product. TRAMPOLINE, ASPIRIN, NYLON, BIKINI, CELLOPHANE, COLA (not Coca-Cola, however), ESCALATOR, JUNGLE GYM, HULA- HOOP, THERMOS, LINOLEUM and YO-YO all were once proprietary trademarks.

  • Excavating Fort Massachusetts
    EXCAVATING FORT MASSACHUSETTS BY GALEN R. BAKER The general location of Fort Massachusetts, the first per­ manent American military post in Colorado, has been more or less well-known by residents of the Fort Garland area for many years. Local people are known to have done some relic hunting on the site in the early 1900's, but this is now forbidden, and the land is closed to the public. A more exact location of the old fort was determined in July, 1964, by utilizing old photo­ graphs. Of particular help were a group of photographs made by 0. T. Davis between 1900 and 1910. Standing on an elevated terrace above and east of the Ute Creek flood plain, Davis was able to take in the area o.f the fort and to draw on his photo­ graphs the location of the stockade and adjacent buildings as View of Fort Massachusetts site by 0. T. Davis, c. 1900 2 THE COLORADO MAGAZINE XLII/l 1965 he believed they had existed.1 Excavations made during August and September, 1964, determined the exact location of the stock­ ade and adjacent buildings, and generally confirmed the location of the fort outlined by Davis on his photographs. The State Historical Society of Colorado, in cooperation with Trinidad State Junior College, began formal excavation of Fort Massachusetts on August 18, 1964, and continued through Sep­ tember 12. The fort is located on Ute Creek at the foot of the Sierra Blanca Range in San Luis Valley. This location is approxi­ mately seven miles north of the present-day US 160, where it crosses Ute Creek, about one mile west of Fort Garland Colo- ra~.
