BATON ROUGE, La., Aug. 30, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Louisiana Food Company (OTCBB:LUSI.ob - News), a purveyor of "Certified" Louisiana specialty food products, today introduced its newest product, Red Stick Red Beans, "Red Stick" being the English translation of "Baton Rouge", Louisiana's capital city and a traditional hub of Cajun society. LUSI's Red Stick Red Beans will begin to appear on South Louisiana grocers' shelves and at the company's online store beginning during the fourth quarter of 2011.
"This upcoming weekend is the official start of two of America's greatest 'seasons', the college football season and, more importantly, the tailgating season," said David Loflin, LUSI's President. "Our Red Stick Red Beans are a delicious and extremely budget-friendly version of a traditional Southern favorite," he added. Mr. Loflin also stated that the Red Stick Red Beans labeling is an original work of art that displays several Baton Rouge icons.
As with LUSI's other products, the labeling for its Red Stick Red Beans carries with it a story inspired by the history, the culture and the people of South Louisiana:
"Bridge over the Mississippi in five, Tiger Stadium in eight, twelve hours 'til kickoff," John hollered, as he squinted into the morning's first light. The fifty miles from Breaux Bridge to Baton Rouge on I-10 had gone smoothly so early on a Saturday. As he pulled the purple and gold RV into its rightful place and inhaled, John could tell the smokers were already hard at work . . . little bit of boudin, little bit of andouille, little bit of brisket, red beans and rice, some ice cold . . . "Johnnie, Johnnie, look, it's the Broussards and the Robichauds and they both brought their catahoulas ," John's wife, Faye, exclaimed, breaking his revery. "Great! I love those pups, and looks like it's their smoker I was enjoying. Hey, honey, grab the red beans and the pot, so we can get them goin'," he said. Opening the door of the RV and stepping down, John yelled, "Boys, whatever it is, it smells darn good . . . perhaps a little smoked Hog," he laughed. "You know it. Geaux Tigers!", his friends yelled . . . — continued at www.louisianafoodcompany.com/redbeans.
Capturing South Louisiana
From the outset, LUSI's management has believed that the rich and diverse cultural heritage of South Louisiana would provide a natural source of inspiration for its product labels. As works of art, LUSI's product labels capture the movement and energy that is South Louisiana – they are "eye-grabbers", and retailer and consumer response to the labels has been extremely positive.
