Abstract:
1. A food product dispenser, comprising: a fluid source; at least two fluid nozzles; a flowable food component source; a food component nozzle; and a delivery device connecting the fluid source to the fluid nozzles and the component source to the component nozzle for delivering a fluid and a food component from the respective source to the respective nozzle, wherein the delivery device and nozzles are configured such that the fluid and component are ejected from the fluid and component nozzles, respectively, in at least two fluid streams and at least one component stream, respectively, which intersect each other at an intersection location at which at least one of the streams is substantially in a state of free fall; wherein the delivery device and nozzles are configured for ejecting the streams in a configuration such that the streams mix by collision to produce a food product which is directed to a dispensing location and wherein the fluid streams are ejected at a linear velocity that is greater than the linear velocity of the food component stream.
