- Claim: 1-40. (canceled)
- Claim: 41. Food additive comprising a triacylglycerol or mixture of triacylglycerols, the acyl residues of which are selected from the group consisting of tetradecanoyl to eicosanoyl, optionally mono- or di-unsaturated, wherein more than 15 mole-% of total acyl residues are α-substituted acyl residues, a food emulsifier and, optionally, one or more of water, sodium chloride, antioxidant, colorant, and flavoring.
- Claim: 42. The food additive of claim 41, wherein said food emulsifier is selected from lecithin and galactolipid.
- Claim: 43. The food additive of claim 41, wherein at least one acyl residue is monosubstituted with C1-C4 alkyl.
- Claim: 44. The food additive of claim 41 in which 15 mole % or more of the acyl residues are 2-methyloctadecanooyl residues, and at least one other acyl residue is hexdecanoyl.
- Claim: 45. The food additive of claim 43, wherein said acyl residues consist essentially of hexadecanoyl and 2-methyloctadecanoyl.
- Claim: 46. The food additive of claim 45, wherein the molar ratio of hexadecanoyl to 2-methyloctadecanoyl is about 1:2.
- Claim: 47. The food additive of claim 41, wherein the emulsifier is at least one of galactolipid and lecithin.
- Claim: 48. The food additive of claim 47, wherein the emulsifier comprises fractionated oat oil.
- Claim: 49. The food additive of claim 41, in form of an oil-in-water emulsion.
- Claim: 50. Food composition comprising a satiety enhancing amount of a food additive of claim 41.
- Claim: 51. The food composition of claim 50, wherein more than 50 mole-% of said α-substituted acyl residues are a member selected from the group consisting of 2-methyltetradecanoyl, 2-methylhexadecanoyl, 2-methyloctadecanoyl, 2-methyleicosanoyl, and mixtures thereof.
- Claim: 52. The food composition of claim 50, wherein more than 80 mole-% of said α-substituted acyl residues are a member selected from the group consisting of 2-methyltetradecanoyl, 2-methylhexadecanoyl, 2-methyloctadecanoyl, 2-methyleicosanoyl, and mixtures thereof.
- Claim: 53. The food composition of claim 50, wherein more than 90 mole-% of said α-substituted acyl residues a member selected from the group consisting of 2-methyltetradecanoyl, 2-methylhexadecanoyl, 2-methyloctadecanoyl, 2-methyleicosanoyl, and mixtures thereof.
- Claim: 54. The food composition of claim 50, wherein more than 95 mole-% of said α-substituted acyl residues a member selected from the group consisting of 2-methyltetradecanoyl, 2-methylhexadecanoyl, 2-methyloctadecanoyl, 2-methyleicosanoyl, and mixtures thereof.
- Claim: 55. The food composition of claim 50, wherein the food emulsifier comprises at least one of lecithin and galactolipid.
- Claim: 56. The food composition of claim 55, wherein the galactolipid is comprised by fractionated oat oil.
- Claim: 57. The food composition of claim 50 in form of a dairy product.
- Claim: 58. The food composition of claim 50, in form of a non-dairy product.
- Claim: 59. The food composition of claim 50, wherein said α-substituted acyl residue is 2-methyloctadecanoyl.
- Claim: 60. The food composition of claim 50, wherein said acyl residues that are not α-substituted are selected from hexadecanoyl and octadecanoyl.
- Claim: 61. A method of controlling satiety in a person, comprising administration to the person of a satiety enhancing amount of the food additive of claim 50.
- Claim: 62. The method of claim 61, wherein more than 50 mole-% of said triacylglycerol mixture is 1-(2-methyloctadecanoyl)-2,3-dihexadecanoyl-glycerol.
- Claim: 63. The method of claim 61, wherein about a third of said acyl residues are octadecanoyl and about two thirds are 1-(2-methyloctadecanoyl).
- Claim: 64. A triglyceride composition comprising of tripalmitin, tri(2-methylstearoyl)glycerol, 1,2-di(2-methyl-stearoyl)-3-palmitoylglycerol, 1,3-di(2-methyl-stearoyl)-2-palmitoylglycerol, 1-(2-methylstearoyl)-2,3-dipalmitoyl-glycerol, and 1,3-dipalmitoyl-2-(2-methylstearoyl)glycerol.
- Claim: 65. The composition of claim 64, additionally comprising a food emulsifier selected from lecithin and galactolipid.
- Claim: 66. An oil-in-water emulsion consisting essentially of the triglyceride composition of claim 64 and water.
