Quiet

Things have been pretty quiet at Linda’s lately because we are in the midst of some exciting new products becoming available and just haven’t had a chance to let everyone know.

We also expect to have a definitive update on the availability of the Peanut Butter Cup Patties this week. Keep your eyes peeled for the email updates.

The New Forum

I receive a lot of great comments, ideas, suggestions, recipes, and more via email and I realized much of it was locked away on my computer. So to share all these and to help connect our customers to one another I’ve created a new forum.  It might take a little while to build some content, but considering our passionate customer base it just might turn into something great.

So here is the location: www.lindasdietdelites.com/forum  – let me know what you think, really.

Special Alert: Peanut Butter Cup Invasion

Last night I sent a special alert to the Linda’s Food Lover’s email list about the new Peanut Butter cup Patties from chocolite. The details are included below:

In the last issue we mentioned the company that created the incredible products Chocolite was developing a potential peanut butter cup product.
The packaging still isn’t completed, so the product isn’t available.

…..Sigh…
But don’t fret, Linda’s has managed to get a hold of an entire case of the new product. Yes, seriously. And let’s just say this stuff is good, possibly so good it should be illegal.

Since we have the product, but no packaging, we have decided the best thing to do is just give it away. More specifically, give it to YOU! Any orders placed will receive a free sample until we run out, first come first serve.

Unfortunately we have to limit it to orders over $30 because we don’t want to spend all day taping up little itty bitty boxes especially with this spring weather approaching.

For our retail customers, we will have samples available this weekend so make sure to pop in.

(You’ll have to excuse the terrible pictures I was so excited about this product that I couldn’t wait till the weekend so I took some pictures with my cameraphone….at 3:56AM. Oh what I do for the love of peanut butter and chocolate.)

Ahem, back to the news, that’s right, you get to try a product before your friends, before it’s for sale, before even the mighty Hungry Girl finds it.

Where’s the link?!!! Where’s the link?!!! It’s here: YUMYUM.

If you love peanut butter cups(and who doesn’t) then you better not pass up a chance to try these.

A normal peanut butter cup is 260 calories, 15g fat, 29g carbs(25 of that is sugar), and 6g protein.

YIKES!!!!

These totally amazing new peanut butter cup patties are only:
40 calories
3g fat
7g carbs
6g fiber
1g of sugar alcohol
1g protein

Yes, you are reading that correctly. Only 1 point for two of these bad boys, and 0(count ’em) 0 net carbs.

As an added benefit, they haven’t used maltitol this time around so the sugar alcohol is much lower than almost all their other products.

Product Page Tabs

At 3 am last night after completing the latest round of shipments, I made some adjustments to the product pages. Many of the previous product info pages can now be easily navigated using the “tabs” on the product page.

Eventually each product will have a tab for the nutritional information, ingredients, additional images, products customers also purchased, reviews, and more.

Check out the prototype page which includes Nutritional and Ingredients tabs for the Light Touch Muffins here: Click me!Click me!

Out of Stocks

We have had so many orders this past week that we ran out of product!! Sometimes this happens because we do our best to only have the freshest product and when the number of orders significantly increases we run out. But, not to worry. The fresh product is coming in this week and any delayed orders will be sent out soon.

File #324 : The Case of the Missing Bagels

As many of you have noticed, we have been out of stock on zero net carb products, and single packed low carb bagels for over two weeks now. Depressing indeed. Unfortunately the baker was having production problems with their facility and then the packaging so our weekly batch of bagels hasn’t come. We have been told that all the problems have been resolved and we should be receiving our order this week.

To all those who have been waiting, thank you for your patience. It is much appreciated.

American Fries

French American Fries have taken hold of Linda’s lately. The craze for fries may be due to the memories of summer ballAmerican Fries games and lazy days by the pool they conjur up. But, I’m pretty sure it is the irresistible flavors that make everyone that tries them in our retail location say, “These are low calorie..” and “Oh my, the ketchup actually tastes like french fries with ketchup!”

If you are a snacker, but haven’t had a bag of potato chips in ages then you should definitely try these out. The portion control bags are only 2 points for the ketchup and sea salt flavors, and 3 points for the yellow cheddar.
