Abstract

See full text

Reduced calorie food compositions are prepared using linked esterified alkoxylated polyol fat substitutes comprised of polycarboxylate linking segments, polyol segments, and C.sub.6 -C.sub.24 monocarboxylic fatty acid-esterified oxyalkylene segments, and, optionally, oxyalkylene segments between the polycarboxylate linking segments and the polyol segments. The fat substitutes are obtainable by alkoxylating a polyol such as glycerin with an epoxide such as propylene oxide and esterifying the resulting alkoxylated polyol with both a polycarboxylic acid or an equivalent thereof and a C.sub.6 -C.sub.24 monocarboxylic fatty acid or an equivalent thereof, either simultaneously or sequentially.
