An apparatus for loading and unloading a plurality of shipping containers into a carrier. The containers are arranged according to a predetermined pattern on a fixed staging unit of the apparatus. A first conveyor of the apparatus receives and transports the arranged containers from the fixed staging unit. The first conveyor is movable horizontally. A second conveyor of the apparatus receives the containers from the first conveyor and transports the containers into the carrier. The second conveyor is movable horizontally and vertically. A control unit of the apparatus controls transportation of the containers from the second conveyor into the carrier when the second conveyor is vertically moved to a predetermined position.

Described is apparatus useful in enabling the making of a cooked baked goods foodstuff and in enabling a process to be carried out whereby a Maillard reactant-coated uncooked foodstuff is exposed to microwave radiation for a time sufficient to provide a browned baked goods foodstuff which is cooked in a relatively short period of time. The apparatus comprises: (i) first mixing device for mixing a fluid carrier and Maillard or Amadori reactants; (ii) second mixing device separate from the first mixing device for mixing dough; (iii) shaping device downstream from the second mixing device for shaping the mixed dough; (iv) coating device for coating the composition of (i) onto the shaped dough; (v) microwave cooking device downstream from the coating device to cook the coated shaped dough; and (vi) device for controlling the microwave cooking device to determine the cooking time and to stop the microwave cooking at the expiration of the cooking time defined according to specific mathematical equations.

Described is a process for producing a cooked edibly browned storage-stable fibrous proteinaceous muscle tissue foodstuff including the steps of: (a) providing a particulate flowable flavoring powder which contains individually discretly encapsulated Maillard reaction reagents with the reaction reagents being at least one enxapsulated amino acid and at least one encapsulated sugar; (b) providing an uncooked fibrous proteinaceous muscle tissue foodstuff containing more than 50% water; (c) placing in intimate the contact with at least part of the surface of the foodstuff, a flavor augmenting, imparting or enhancing quantity of the particulate flowable flavoring powder of (a); and (d) exposing the flavoring powder coated foodstuff surface to microwave powder-radiation for a period of time to cause the foodstuff to be edible whereby the resulting product is caused to be edible as a foodstuff and the cooked fibrous proteinaceous muscle tissue is edibly browned. Optionally, the particulate flowable flavoring powder may be in the form of a slurry with a solvent composition which is capable of raising the dielectric constant of the foodstuff to be cooked whereby the foodstuff to be cooked is completely cooked and edibly browned in the period of time under 600 seconds.

Described is a process for carrying out microwave production of baked goods having a chocolate flavoring thereon and/or therein and products produced thereby. The process comprises the steps of: (a) providing a composition of matter consisting essentially of precursors of a chocolate flavor (e. g. , sugar, leucine and phenyl alanine) and a solvent capable of raising the dielectric constant of the surface and/or the internal matrix of a foodstuff to be cooked whereby the cooking time will be less than 120 seconds (such as propylene glycol or glycerin) and water; (a') optionally, also providing a composition of matter consisting essentially of precursors of a Maillard reaction product flavor in admixture with the composition (a), supra, or separately with a solvent capable of raising the dielectric constant of the surface and/or internal matrix of the foodstuff to be cooked whereby the cooking time will be less than 120 seconds (such as propylene glycol or glycerine) and water; (b) providing an uncooked baked goods foodstuff, e. g. , dough; (c) coating the composition of (a) and, optionally (a') onto the surface of the uncooked foodstuff and/or incorporating the composition of (a) and, optionally, (a') firstly into a controlled release system and then incorporating the controlled release system into the internal matrix of the foodstuff; and (d) exposing the thus-treated uncooked foodstuff to microwave radiation for a period of under 120 seconds whereby the resulting product is caused to be edible as a cooked foodstuff having chocolate flavor nuances.

Described is a process for carrying out microwave browning on baked goods and products produced thereby. The process comprises the step of providing: (a) a composition of matter consisting essentially of procedures of a Maillard reaction product flavor, a solvent capable of raising the dielectric constant of the surface of a foodstuff to be cooked whereby the cooking time will be less than 6 minutes (such as water or a mixture of propylene glycol and water or a mixture of glycerine and water or a mixture of propylene glycol and glycerine or propylene glycol or glycerine taken alone; (b) providing an uncooked baked goods foodstuff, e. g. dough; (c) coating the composition of (a) onto the surface of the uncooked foodstuff; and (d) exposing the uncooked coated foodstuff with microwave radiation for a period of under 360 seconds whereby the resulting product is caused to be edible as a cooked foodstuff.
