Snack foods include a vast array of food items ranging from cereal-based crackers and com chips to high-protein snacks such as beef sticks and jerky. In past years, smoking of snack foods was limited primarily to meat snacks, as other snack foods were difficult to handle in the traditional smokehouse. With the development of natural smoke flavourings, snack food manufacturers can now incorporate these flavourings into a variety of products to produce smoked, barbecued, roasted or grilled flavours. 

The principal polymers used in blown film production are polyolefins, although other polymers can also be used. The major applications are those that require biaxial strength, and include bags of all kinds, as well as agricultural and construction film. In food packaging, coextruded structures with three to five layers, or even more, are common, with major markets including packaging for cereal, meat, snacks, and frozen foods. 

More than half of flexible packaging is used for food. Within foods, candy, bakery products, and snack-type foods, such as potato and com chips, use well over half of flexible packaging. Cheese, processed meat, shrink wraps, condiments, dry-drink mixes, fresh meats, and fresh produce represent smaller appHcations.

Starches are added to processed meats—lunch meats, hot dogs, sausages, etc.—as fillers, binders, moisture retainers, and fat substitutes. They are added to soups, sauces, and gravies as thickeners. They are used in extruded cereals and snacks to hold the shape of the material.

Paprika contains capsombin and capsanthin (Fig. 8.3) which occur mainly as the lauric acid esters, and about 20 other carotenoid pigments. Paprika is produced in many countries which have developed their own specialties. Cayenne or cayenne pepper, produced from a different cultivar of C. annum, is usually more pungent. C. frutescens is the source of the very pungent Tabasco sauce. Paprika oleoresin is produced by solvent extraction of the ground powder. Obviously paprika supplies both flavor and color and its use is limited to those products compatible with the flavor. The recent rise in demand for tomato products in the form of pizza, salsa, etc., has increased the demand for paprika. Paprika is used in meat products, soups, sauces, salad dressings, processed cheese, snacks, confectionery and baked goods.1018... 

Trans fatty acids are produced during the commercial hydrogenation of plant oils (Chapter 11). Some margarines contain these fatty acids, as do some commercially prepared snack foods (e.g. biscnits, cookies, cakes, crisps, chips). In addition, bacteria in the rnmen of rnminants prodnce trans fatty acids, which are therefore present in dairy prodnce and meat. Trans fatty acids can be incorporated into the phospholipids of the plasma membrane of endothelial and other cells, resulting in damage to the membranes. Furthermore, these abnormal fatty acids can interfere in the production of thromboxanes, prostacyclins or leucotrienes and hence interfere in control of blood clotting, immune cell activity and inflammation (Chapter 11). 

Some of these government agencies and private companies, because of the nature of their business, will utilize the services of an analytical chemistry laboratory as part of their overall need to assure the required quality operation. For example, municipal governments will employ the use of an analytical chemistry laboratory to test their water supply on a regular basis to make sure it is free of toxic chemicals. The pharmaceutical company will house an analytical chemistry laboratory within its facility to routinely test the products it produces and the raw materials that go into these products to make certain that they meet the required specifications. A fertilizer plant will utilize an analytical chemistry laboratory to confirm that the composition of its product meets the specifications indicated on the individual bags of fertilizer. Companies that produce a food product, such as snack chips, cheese, cereal, or meat products, will have an analytical chemistry laboratory as part of their operation because they want to have the assurance that the...
