They are made from starchy foods, such as corn, cereals, and grains, or by modifying egg white or whey from milk, or replacing triglycerides in vegetable oils. They are incorporated into a variety of food products like frozen desserts, processed meats, cheese, and sour cream to lower the fat content. They can also be found in baked goods, yogurt, margarine, salad dressing, sauces, gravies, snack chips, and various ready-to-eat (RTE) items.

Moreover, fat replacers offer a safe and effective means of maintaining the palatability of food while promoting calorie control and weight loss and maintenance. This, in confluence with the increasing focus on weight-loss strategies and the rising health consciousness among individuals, is driving the demand for fat replacers across the globe. Apart from this, fat replacers, coupled with a healthy lifestyle, can effectively combat obesity and its complications.
