990261 Koo Koo Roo "Healthy Dining Claims" Are Validated

Irvine, CA - Koo Koo Roo Enterprises, Inc., announced that independent lab results were disclosed in an investigative news report on a Los Angeles TV station, KCOP- UPN13, regarding eight restaurants that make claims about healthy meals served in the LA market. The investigative news team at KCOP set out to validate typical claims made by these restaurants about the healthy aspects of their food. The certified lab that conducted the test was chosen by UPN-13 and had no knowledge of the specific sources of the food samples used for their fat analysis.

"Koo Koo Roo crows that its original skinless chicken breast is low in saturated fat," reported Christina Penza of UPN-13. "We chose the basil pasta as the low fat side dish and in this case the low fat claims are true.

"The total meal weighed in at 11 grams of fat," added UPN News producer, Staci Siegel, "Exactly what the FDA required to call this food low fat."

Gayle A. DeBrosse, president of the Koo Koo Roo restaurant division of Koo Koo Roo Enterprises, Inc. and member of the advisory board for Healthy Dining commented, "We are proud of our food and its contribution to the healthy living lifestyle spreading across America. Koo Koo Roo prides itself on the consistent freshness and fine flavor of our food, so it is especially rewarding to know that we stood out amongst the others as the only company that delivered on its claims."

Renowned for its proprietary Original Skinless Flame Broiled Chicken(TM), Koo Koo Roo delivers a tasty alternative within the casual dining and take-home meal replacement market. Other menu selections include Koo Koo Roo's savory country herb and garlic rotisserie chicken, fresh roasted hand-carved turkey, hearty soups, crisp garden salads, sandwiches and a cornucopia of delicious, freshly prepared side dishes.

According to UPN-13, the Los Angeles market is comprised of 5,009,230 TV households, with an estimated population of 14,766,000 in the Los Angeles DMA, which includes the 7 county areas of Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Ventura, East Kern, West Riverside and Inyo. The station that produces UPN-13 newscasts locally, broadcasts news nightly at 7:30 and 10pm. KCOP's report did not, as a matter of policy, constitute an endorsement of Koo Koo Roo, Inc. or its products.
