ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to novel mold growth inhibiting products for various foodstuffs, and a method of making and using the same. The mold growth inhibiting product is generally a mixture of various compounds, including: a first compound selected from the group consisting of azodicarbonamide or potassium bromate, a second compound selected from the group consisting of benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, calcium benzoate, potassium benzoate, paraben, acetic acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, citric acid, potassium sorbate, sodium sorbate, calcium sorbate, sorbic acid, calcium propionate, potassium propionate, sodium propionate, propionic acid or mixtures thereof. In a second embodiment of the invention, a third compound is added which lowers the decomposition temperature of the azodicarbonamide. In a fifth embodiment of the invention, the mold growth inhibiting product is prepared by placing a layer of azodicarbonamide on a substrate means and then covering said layer with a gas permeable separator means. The second compound is then added on top of the separator and then the combination is heated to form the final product. In a seventh embodiment, the second compound is mixed with a gaseous mixture to yield a mold inhibitor product having little or no off-flavor, off-texture, off-color or off-odor. All embodiments of this invention are added to the foodstuff in the same or greater percentages of current day mold inhibitors, yet the resultant foodstuff has no off-flavor, taste or color which is normally imparted by current day mold inhibitors.
