WELCOME TO TASTE CONNECTIONS
Loooooooooooong
overdue information on TC-BACON BITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally,
TC-Bacon bits will be available starting Friday August 6, 2010 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Many
factors created road blocks in the production, one of which was installing a
new oven. Getting the permit for it had taken more than a year (since May
2009). TC-BACON BITS should have been available summer 2009, and I was not
able to introduce many number of other new baked products that depended on
this installation.
Starting
with TC-BACON BITS, I will be adding other new products as well - Fresh-baked
low-protein Bread, Turnovers with fruit filling, Snack mixes –
both sweet and savory flavors, fruit bars, and exciting other products………….
Thank
you all for patiently waiting with me until I could make these products
available to you.
I will
be taking orders starting August 1st.
Looking
forward to sharing these exciting new products with you all!!!!!!!!!!!

ABOUT US:
"My son was diagnosed with Homocystinuria at the age of 2 . He has been on low-protein diet since that time. Over the past 23 years (he is 25 now), I have been making many mouth-watering recipes for him. I have been trying to find short cuts and formulate easy-bake ready mixes so the thought of preparing a low protein meal is not daunting anymore. The results of my successful tries are these mixes, and I have packaged them for your convenience. Soon I will be adding more bake-ready mixes for preparing various everyday items like tortillas, biscuits, cakes, cookies, pancakes, waffles, etc. which should take only a few minutes to put together.

Malathy Ramanujam:
Malathy Ramanujam graduated from
University of Madras, India, in 1980, with a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry.
She joined her husband for his Post Doctoral Research in London, U.K., in
1983. In 1985, her son Bharat
Ramanujam was diagnosed at the age of two with a rare metabolic condition called
Homocystinuria. She moved to the
United States in 1989.
The treatment of Homocystinuria also requires a special diet similar to PKU. Since there were not many options available for his diet she started experimenting with the limited resources to formulate various baking mixes and use them to prepare special meals for her son. Since 1994, she has been teaching families with similar metabolic condition how to prepare special meals. She graduated Magna Cum Laude from Bachelor of Arts (Liberal Studies major) from Cal State, Dominguez Hills in spring 1999. She created the website www.lowprotein.com in 2000 to share her recipes with everyone. Encouraged by Kathryn Moseley, dietitian at CHLA, and Dr. Toma (Professor, Food Science in CSULB) she pursued Master’s degree in Nutritional Science in Fall 2000. She graduated (Fall, 2004) in the top 1 % of the graduating class (included in the Dean’s List). She started her company, Taste Connections in 2003.
She has been presenting workshops on low protein cooking around the United States and Canada and still continues to do so inspiring metabolic patients to stay on such life-saving diet.
She was one of the parents who had testified in a hearing during California’s Newborn Genetic Screening Policymaker’s Symposium in the Capitol, Sacramento, March 2004. She is also a trained Resource Mother and is a member of PKU Parents’ Organization of California.
Bharat Ramanujam
Bharat is 26 years old and lives with his parents in California. He was diagnosed at the age of 2 with a condition called Homocystinuria (similar to PKU), which is due to the absence of an enzyme, called Cystathionine ß Synthase. He has been on low-protein products and a supplemental methionine-free protein formula ever since.
He is a student at El Camino
College and he is planning to transfer to a 4-year college soon. He is also an
active staff at the guest services at the Aquarium of the Pacific in
Long Beach. He has also created websites www.hcusupport.com
to bring the families with Homocystinuria together and www.endangeredandrareanimals.com
to help bring endangered animals awareness to the public. He is very passionate
about his causes.
He welcomes comments and suggestions on his websites. You can email him at sonof.india82@gmail.com
