The food item is stored in the transparent film allowing an unobstructed view of the food item. An upper portion of the transparent film is secured to the backer card leaving a portion of the transparent film below the point of attachment unsecured allowing the food item to move away from the backer card. Information pertaining to the food item is printed on the backer card leaving the view of the food item unobstructed. 1. A food package assembly , comprising:a backer card; anda transparent film disposed with at least a portion adjacent the backer card, the transparent film having a front side, a back side that faces the backer card opposite the front side, and a cavity disposed between the front and back sides; anda food item disposed in the cavity;wherein the transparent film is attached to the backer card at an attachment location disposed only above the cavity, enabling a portion of transparent film below the attachment location to move away from the backer card; andwherein the cavity does not extend laterally beyond the backer card; and wherein the transparent film has: a perforation located between the cavity and an upper portion of the transparent film; and a seal between the front side and the back side of the film such that the front side may be peeled away fret the back wide.2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the backer card comprises header and base portions claim 1 , wherein a portion of the transparent film attached to the backer card is disposed between the header and base portions.3. The assembly of claim 2 , wherein the backer card's base portion comprises front and rear sections claim 2 , wherein the front section faces the transparent film claim 2 , and the rear section faces away from the transparent film.4. The assembly of claim 3 , wherein the front and rear sections ...

A method of making a food product can include forming an emulsion containing a meat and a firming agent that is one or more of plasma, whole egg powder, guar gum, pea fiber, pea protein, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) or a modified cereal starch; directing the emulsion through a die to form a meat analog; cooking the meat analog with steam; and cutting the meat analog into thin flakes. The method can include cooling the meat analog before the cutting. The method can include mixing the thin flakes of the meat analog with jelly or gravy to form a blended food composition in which a ratio of the flakes to the jelly or gravy is about 30:70 to about 70:30. 1. A method of making a food product , the method comprising: directing the emulsion through a die to form a meat analog;', 'heating the meat analog with steam to form a cooked meat analog; and', 'cutting the cooked meat analog into thin flakes, wherein the thin flakes have a thickness from about 0.5 mm to about 2.5 mm., 'forming an emulsion comprising a meat and a firming agent selected from the group consisting of plasma, whole egg powder, guar gum, pea fiber, pea protein, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), a modified cereal starch, and mixtures thereof;'}2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the firming agent is selected from the group consisting of (i) plasma alone without another firming agent claim 1 , (ii) a combination of plasma and pea protein claim 1 , (iii) a combination of plasma and pea fiber and (iv) a combination of plasma and CMC.3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the firming agent is about 6 wt. % to about 9 wt. % of the meat analog.4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the firming agent comprises at least 50% by weight of plasma.5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the heating of the meat analog comprises subjecting the meat analog to a steam oven at a throughput from about 250 to about 300 kg/h.6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the cooked meat analog has a temperature from about 50° C. to about 70° C.7. The ...
