TASK 3 – EXCERPT TRANSLATION - A free translation taking into account the target audience

Novos Alimentos: O Futuro é Uma Delícia

Cientistas da área de alimentos estão pesquisando produtos que são mais funcionais – e também mais divertidos – que os que temos atualmente. Mãos meladas, por exemplo, breve serão coisa do passado. Removendo a água contida no mel, os pesquisadores criaram uma bolacha de mel sólido que tem o tamanho e o peso de uma moeda de dez centavos [ N.T.: imaginando que tenha tamanho equivalente ao da moeda americana de US$0.25 ]; quando colocada num líquido quente, dissolve-se em 90 segundos. A gerente do projeto, Charlotte Jordan, antecipa que a novidade esteja disponível nas prateleiras dos supermercados e nos cafés dentro de um ano. Já o sal redondo não formará torrões nem ficará “grumoso”. Adicionando glicina à fórmula, os cientistas do Instituto de Pesquisa Central do Sal e Substâncias Marinhas, de Bhavnagar, na Índia, criaram cristais quase perfeitamente esféricos que fazem com que o sal flua mais facilmente e não “embole”.


A HortResearch, uma empresa de pesquisa científica das frutas da Nova Zelândia, está desenvolvendo uma maçã de polpa vermelha. A cor resulta de uma infusão de antocianina, um antioxidante relacionado ao melhoramento da memória, da visão e da circulação sanguínea. O produto levará ainda uma década para chegar às lojas. Mas a mussarela de maçã ácida pode estar no mercado dentro de três ou cinco anos. Os pesquisadores do Centro de Pesquisa de Laticínios do Wisconsin, da Universidade de Wisconsin-Madison, estão desenvolvendo um tipo de queijo-palito com sabores de fantasia para crianças, fazendo experiências com sabores como melancia e algodão-doce.
