according to their web site, these guys are also planning to launch frozen low carb meals -- I for one wouldnt mind having a low carb equivalent of smart one/lean cuisine frozen dinners for those days when I just dont have time to do it myself...

BEVERLY HILLS CELEBRITY CHEFS LAUNCH LOW CARB FROZEN MEALS THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO YOU SOON IN YOUR LOCAL SUPERMARKET

Private Chefs to Halle Berry, Quentin Tarentino, Cameron Crowe and Marcus Allen create specialty low carb frozen entrees for supermarkets and low carb stores

The Pure Foods line of frozen low carb entrees will be available in supermarkets SOON. The line of frozen entrees will retail between $3.49 and $4.49.

If ever there comes a time when any low-carb products are made with whole, natural ingredients like real cream, real cheese, real butter, for example, and no soy proteins, powders or chemicals and additives then I'll jump on the bandwagon, but please forgive me if I don't jump up and down with glee whenever I see any new company or fast food restaurant stating they are going to make low-carb products.

I agree with you, Hellistile. But since we can't see their ingredients statements, we don't know yet if their products are made with whole foods or not. I'll be interested to see when they are available in my area. The frozen meals sound handy.

On that same vein, a co-worker brought in a low-carb dessert today for everyone to share. The problem was just what you commented on -- it was full of frankenfoods and non-fat to boot. I had one bite and had to spit it out -- it was grotesque!
