Guest guest Posted December 28, 2000 Report Share Posted December 28, 2000 Stimulus > Just a note, I got an email from Lee, who writes Baking Low Carb to > let me know that this and many recipes on this site are hers.. Response This is something I have been wondering about. Perhaps the entre-pray-newer in me or maybe just the lazy fellow who does not like to cook for one or when not being paid to do so. I understand from having been on one of the Cuy list that in Florida there are at least two retail stores that are all lowcarb. At one time in Houston I worked for a caterer who when asked for a cake for diabetics would send me to a business that is not where it used to be and the other businesses in the same building, posh River Oaks area were very nice and got the name for me but believe they are out of business. They also had candies and nuts and so forth. I wondered similar things when I was on lf. Why were there not businesses that cater to such a large clientale? No pun intended. So I guess I am also wondering how does one put together a set of products and suppliers like the D' lite folks have or build a portfolio of products to offer without drawing fire, rightly or wrongly from those who are used as springboards/resources and indeed what if any arrangements need to be made so that products can be produced on a scale that would lower overhead per unit and convert to lower retail prices and greater availability. This has always really bothered me when I occasionally overdo salt and need to cut back. How can it cost a third more to not put salt in a can of green peas?

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2000 Report Share Posted December 28, 2000 sorry, you really caught me off guard, it's been one heck of a day... question 1: all of the low carb websites have links to manufacuters of lc products, it is not hard at all to become a distributor, basically it takes a sales tax license and a place of business and the knowhow to get up and running from there........a great idea!! question 2:You can't, but I feel anyway, if you come across something you know is anothers due credit, it should be given, they work hard to do what they do to, and if opportunity arises, in my opinion, and a wrong can be righted, it should. Sorry about " my english " I actually wrote that fast and meant to re phrase " parts " of it but clicked send too fast......Annie >To the questions restated so that I do not seem so dull. > >If I want to open a store, restraunt, cafe, bakery, and/or spa that caters >to lf and/or lc folks how do I do so? > >How do I avoid unfairly using other peoples recipes without giving them >thier due? _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
