ABSTRACT:
Acylated amino acid ester derivatives are disclosed as fat mimetic compounds for reduced calorie food compositions. These compounds are derived from amino acids and contain one amino group acylated with a fatty acid or fatty acid derivative, one carboxylic group esterified with a fatty alcohol or a fatty alcohol derivative, and, optionally, a free or derivatized amino acid side chain. Many of the compounds can be represented by the following formula: ##STR1## where A is a hydrocarbyl group derived from an amino acid, X is a free or derivatized amino acid side chain, n is 0 or 1, and R and R' are aliphatic, ether or ester groups. Preferred compounds have one side chain and are partially digestible, achieving reduced caloric value and reducing problems associated with non-metabolizable fat substitutes.
