Abstract:
Processes for making healthful tortilla-based products in microwave ovens allow production of crisply finished products having one-fifth of the oil of those fried in oil. Likewise, a plastic composition that is suitable for supporting or holding food during warming in a microwave oven is taught which is manufactured, for example, with FDA compliant and non-leaching materials such as polymethylpentene, glass fiber, and talc, as the major or sole ingredients. Minor ingredients, such as a dye, can also be included in the manufacture of the composition, without Bispehnol A, nor any other non-FDA-approved for food contact additives needed to optimize gustatory and textural aspects of the products. Various shapes, sizes, and configurations are offered for consideration.
