Extends Proven Success in School Foodservice to Retail Markets
MUNDELEIN, Ill., Jan. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Z Trim Holdings,
Inc. (AMEX:ZTM) announced today the retail launch of its
headline-making salad dressings. The retail debut of the dressing
line will consist of Z Trim Ranch, Z Trim Honey Dijon and Z Trim
Creamy Italian via both the company's web site and the Sunset Foods
grocery store chain in the Chicago area. "We believe the time is
right to transfer some of our success from Z Trim products in the
schools to the retail sector," said Steve Cohen, new Z Trim CEO.
"The school nutritionists understood our message about replacing
fat with natural, non-caloric dietary fiber, and once they tasted
it, the realm of possibilities for changing the food landscape
began quickly clicking into place and a national news story was
born," he said. "It's catching on that good nutrition doesn't mean
sacrificing taste anymore." Tony Gapastione, Purchasing and
Merchandising Director for Sunset Foods, anticipates a lot of
interest among his customers for innovative products that don't
require them to trade taste for better nutrition. "Our customers
demand and deserve the best the food industry has to offer,"
Gapastione said. "Wherever we can find innovative products that fit
the bill in terms of taste and nutrition, we bring them in," he
said. "We see this as a perfect fit and we're proud to be selected
by the folks at Z Trim for their retail unveiling of this
innovative line." The dressings line contain between 40% and 80%
reduced fat, making them among the lowest for fat content in their
categories. Information about Z Trim and Z Trim dressings and Mayo
Spread are available through the Z Trim web site and on-line store
(http://www.ztrim.com/pages/dressings/70.php) or at any of the
Sunset Food stores in the Chicago area. About Sunset Foods Sunset
