Full Tank Foods and Restaurateur Tom Douglas Collaborate to Develop New Product for Babies and School Children
Posted on: Tuesday, 6 March 2007, 15:00 CST
SEATTLE, March 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Focused on producing the freshest and healthiest flavor combinations for kids and babies, Full Tank Foods is excited to announce a future collaboration with someone equally committed to quality, Tom Douglas, chef and restaurateur. After discussing opportunities to work together and ways to give back to local communities, Full Tank and Douglas will work together to develop a line of baby foods and a school lunch program featuring local and seasonal ingredients. Partial proceeds from the sale of both the baby food line and the school program will go to a local charity.
Nutritional and flavorful lunch options are not synonymous with school lunches. As an effort to provide a healthful and delicious alternative, the collaboration will launch in fall of 2007 as Full Tank and Douglas team up to provide signature dishes for lunch programs in several Seattle-area schools. Currently there are more than 20 schools signed up to work with Full Tank and Douglas.
The recipes and specifics on the entrees are still in the works and will be part of the Full Tank Foods Secret Agent(TM) line of entrees for kids as well as baby food and purees under the label, Tom Douglas signature BabyFuel(TM). Featuring Northwest ingredients and whole, organic grains, the meals and flavors will be developed by Douglas and Full Tank over the course of the next few months and will be available wherever Full Tank products are sold.
More on the collaboration and the local beneficiary will be announced closer to the school year. Interested food service companies are encouraged to contact Full Tank Foods to learn more about the program and its availability in other areas.
Founded by parents of two, John Anderson and Dr. Whitney Anderson, Full Tank Foods are designed with convenience, flavor and nutrition in mind. What began as a communal way to plan meals for their children and friends' children, Full Tank Foods are now available in Metropolitan Markets, Town & Country, Whole Foods stores in the Puget Sound and Portland, Ore. metropolitan areas. Full Tank Foods currently offer the world's first spoon-free baby food and a line of entrees for toddlers and kids, which feature a patent pending method for improving the flavor and nutrition ratio for kid favorites. Full Tank Foods are distributed by Crown Pacific Fine Foods. Full Tank continues to support the local community through donating a percentage of profits to Northwest Harvest and Child Haven.
