                                   increased moisture content being                   
                                   distributed throughout the composition;            
                         (b)       producing an ammonium hydroxide solution           
                                   in the moisture enhanced comminuted meat           
                                   composition;                                       
                         (c)       applying mechanical action to the                  
                                   moisture enhanced meat composition after           
                                   producing the ammonium hydroxide                   
                                   solution therein; and then                         
                         (d)       setting the moisture enhanced meat                 
                                   composition in a desired form by                   
                                   applying heat, or pressure, or both heat           
                                   and pressure to the moisture enhanced              
                                   meat composition.                                  
               22.       A method for producing a pH enhanced comminuted              
                         meat composition, the method including the steps             
                         of:                                                          
                         (a)       adding ammonia to a comminuted meat to             
                                   produce an ammoniated meat composition,            
                                   the comminuted meat made up at least               
                                   partially of small comminuted meat                 
                                   pieces;                                            
                         (b)       adding water to the ammoniated meat                
                                   composition; and                                   
                         (c)       applying mechanical action to the                  
                                   comminuted meat composition after adding           
                                   ammonia thereto and after adding water             
                                   thereto to distribute a resulting                  
                                   ammonium hydroxide solution throughout             
                                   the comminuted meat.
