Disclosed are food compositions having a fluid viscosity and texture similar to pudding, (i.e., a viscosity ranging between about 7,000 to 18,000 c.p. at 40 DEG +/-2 DEG F.). The food products essentially comprise, (A) from about 30% to 55% by weight of raw, washed juice pulp (wet basis); (B) from about 5% to 15% of an acidified milk product such as sour cream or yogurt (solids basis); (C) from about 5% to 15% of nutritive carbohydrate sweetening agent(s); (D) sufficient edible organic acid to provide the food composition with a pH ranging from about 3.0 to 4.5; and (E) sufficient water to provide a moisture content of about 65% to 85%. Preferred embodiments additionally comprise from about 5% to 20% fruit. The food products can be distributed either chilled or frozen. |
