Abstract

Reduced calorie food compositions containing digestion-resistant esterified alkoxylated polysaccharides as full or partial replacements for conventional triglyceride lipids are described. In one embodiment, a polysaccharide such as starch or cellulose is reacted with propylene oxide and the resulting propoxylated polysaccharide then esterified using one or more fatty acids or fatty acid derivatives.
