摘要：Today’s health conscious consumers have continuously avoided consumption of foods high in fat. Meat and meat products such as ground beef, patties, emulsified sausages contain higher level of fat and cholesterol. Meat cuts become leaner by trimming of visible fat. The fat content of meat products can also be reduced by reformulation with fat substitutes. Most substitutes such as added water, leaner meats, protein-based substitutes, carbohydrate-based substitutes and synthetic compounds can be used for fat reduction.
