IzzyCue Noodles Soon To Be Available At Starbucks

IzzyCue, a unit of BKN International Incorporated, has announced that it plans to offer ready-to-eat gourmet noodles at 180 Starbucks locations in the Mid-Atlantic. The noodles will be high-end, spinach fettuccini flavored with a premium citrus ginger sauce packaged separately on the side. Toppings include sautéed sliced shitake mushrooms, Pollock-Surimi flakes and julienne carrots. “This lunch product would not have been possible without the commitment and dedication of some of the industry's top suppliers,” says IzzyCue chief executive Kenneth H. Tan. “We are especially excited that Whole Foods Market Inc. will be co-packing the product line for us.” Noodle sales in the U.S. increased by 16% between 1998 to 2003, making it the third largest noodle market in the world behind Japan and China. http://www.prweb.com
