The aim of the invention is to obtain a food product, in particular a snack product, which has a favourable nutrient physiology and a crispy, brittle texture, and an associated production method. To achieve this, the food product is substantially devoid of starch and has a foamed structure and the solid content has a protein fraction of at least approximately 25% by weight, at least 65% by weight of the protein fraction consisting of gelatin and/or collagen hydrolysate.
