Guest guest Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 List mates, Bear with me this is a little long. I have a life long friend that is in the wholesale food industry with a successful custom commercial kitchen/food-prep operation. He has an ASD five year old nephew that is working through the diet. We have spent many hours discussing the diet and the various difficulties in keeping it in place. Particularly with two professional parents. We are considering putting together an Internet based pre-prepared food service that follows the Diet. After many years of developing kid friendly foods that stay within the strict constraints of the Diet I believe this can be accomplished fairly easily and they can be made affordable. Question, If such a service could be developed using overnight shipping of fresh frozen products, what food categories would this group be interested. His experience is heavy into baked goods and I am sure we can develop many products working with white rice flour and potato flour as a base. I make donuts, breads, cakes and such already so these could be brought up very quickly. Another thought we discussed was a pre packaged school lunch program with rewards and snacks included. Pre package breakfast meals was a third. His long term business plan would include main dishes that incorporated veggies and such that would be made kid friendly to help introduce these items. All receipt ingredients would be run by he powers that be prior to taking this on line. He and I were chefs in the country club circuit 35 years ago and have stayed close friend since. He now works in high volume wholesale so he can keep costs very low and quality very high. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Bill I am looking for some feed back on specifically what parents see would be the most helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
