Food products of the type having a smooth, continuous aqueous phase with discrete pulp-simulating particles dispersed therein are improved by employing as the pulp-simulating particles from about 1 to 10%, based upon the weight of the products, of bread crumbs consisting essentially of wheat flour, yeast and salt, the bread crumbs having a porous, striated and elongated shape and structure and a particle size wherein they are retained on a USS 60 mesh screen after passing a USS 16 mesh screen. These bread crumbs readily absorb moisture from the aqueous phase to provide soft yet coherent pulp-like particles which enhance the appeal of food products, such as barbeque sauces and simulated fruit sauces. |
