Products as Food@, Miscellaneous Publication No. 534,

The issue presented for review is whether the
examiner erred in rejecting claim 47 under 35 U.S.C. '103
over Schaffner taken together with Thompson, Mader, Drown
and Sterner.
On consideration of the record, including the final
rejection (paper no. 8), brief (paper no. 10), examiner=s
answer (paper no. 11) and reply brief (paper no. 12), we
reverse the examiner=s rejection.
