Article Synopsis
- Peanut butter is popular in the American diet, but a new individually wrapped snack—peanut butter bites—offers a high-protein, convenient option for health-conscious consumers.
- The study aimed to assess the shelf life and oxidative stability of the peanut butter bites by testing different antioxidant levels (vitamin E) and packaging types, as well as varying storage temperatures.
- Results indicated that more vitamin E leads to greater product stability, and higher temperatures accelerate oxidation, highlighting the potential market appeal of a shelf-stable peanut butter snack.
This research evaluated blackberries grown in Oklahoma and wines produced using a modified traditional Korean technique employing relatively oxygen-permeable earthenware fermentation vessels. The fermentation variables were temperature (21.6°C versus 26.

It may play an important role in human biological systems by providing protection against cardiovascular disease and some cancers and by boosting the immune system. The oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) has been validated as an index of antioxidant activity for many hydrophilic antioxidants but not for lycopene.
