ZTM Z-Trim Holdings,

Exhibits Versatility of Z Trim Functional Fiber across Food Categories MUNDELEIN, Ill., June 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Interest generated by the demonstration of the Z Trim (AMEX:ZTM) natural functional fiber ingredient across most of Heinz's "Heart Healthy" line of 1.5 ounce single-serving pouches of salad dressings during the National Restaurant Show in Chicago last week continues to result in the transference of the relevant sales leads from Z Trim to the marketing and sales department at Heinz. "Food service operators seemed genuinely interested in the Heinz product, as well as our ingredient," said Rick Harris, vice president of sales and one of several Z Trim staffers demonstrating the samples at the booth during the NRA show in Chicago last week. "We look forward to responding to significant interest in our ingredient from the food manufacturers who attended the show, as well as assisting Heinz in expanding their food service market base for their products." Z Trim's natural corn fiber ingredient also generated interest during the NRA when introduced as a functional ingredient in the formulation for a reduced fat lemon blueberry loaf, sold throughout the western regional network of retail stores of a national beverage chain. A 136 gram serving of the loaf contains just 10 total grams of fat, and 80 total calories from fat, and zero trans fats.

"As we work with the food industry to develop a variety of uses for our highly versatile functional fiber ingredients and blends, we look forward to serving their needs as a dedicated solutions provider and partner," said Z Trim president Steve Cohen. The company recently began formulating their Z Trim ingredient without use of soy lecithin or sodium benzoate in order to further advance its appeal as a natural ingredient.
