An edible product having a pH between 5 and 8 and having a gelled aqueous phase provided by a mixture of at least one glucomannan and at least one carrageenan produced by subjecting a gellable combination of at least one glucomannan and at least one carrageenan to a temperature of at least 50 DEG C for a period of up to 16 hours such as to form a thermo-irreversible gel in the aqueous phase. The product is preferably a meat analogue comprising proteinaceous material dispersed in and bound together by a thermo-irreversible gelled aqueous phase produced from such a gelling system.
