I am happy to announce that Roy Furtado of Essence of Goa (aka. Goanfoods) has obtained USDA approval for his renowned Goa Sausages. It has truly been a labor of love on his part and I am thrilled that he has finally succeeded after encountering many hurdles.
Users can purchase his products online via: http://www.goacom.org/goanfoods/ About Roy Furtado: Roy lives in Los Angeles, CA with his wife and two children. He is an avid cook and began producing Goa sausages from home after getting rave reviews from his friends and family. In 2003, he decided to focus full time on producing Goan foods, due to employment limitations as a result of him becoming legally blind. Roy would like to acknowledge assistance from Karine Repchian of the Braille Institute, Los Angeles, CA and Western Gourmet Inc. for their assistance in getting his product certified by the USDA. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Goa - 2005 Santosh Trophy Champions | | | | Support Soccer Activities at the grassroots in our villages | | Vacationing in Goa this year-end - Carry and distribute Soccer Balls | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
