Abstract

See full text

Methods of high pressure processing of food products are provided. The methods can include adding a secondary inhibitor to the food product to prevent or slow the growth of pathogenic microorganisms and/or to prevent or slow the growth of spoilage microorganisms. The methods can increase the shelf life and/or the usable life of ready-to-eat food products. Exemplary food products include ready-to-eat deli style meats such as beef, turkey, or ham products. The secondary inhibitor can be an organic acid or consumable salt thereof. In some embodiments the secondary inhibitor is acetic acid, e.g. vinegar. High pressure processed food products are also provided. The food products can have a longer shelf life, a longer usable life, and can be safer for human consumption that conventional high pressure processed food products.
