I have a package called the Food Processor II, a demo version of which I also
have and would be glad to send you.

The following is the readme file from this demo disk.  It should be informative.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


			   WELCOME to the Demo Version of
				The FOOD PROCESSOR II
	    Nutrition Analysis System for the IBM PC/XT/AT and Macintosh


We hope you enjoy this demonstration disk.  We could think of no better way to
describe the power and flexibility of the Food Processor II than to let you
explore it at your leisure.  Feel free to make copies of this disk and the
instruction booklet and to share them with others.

The Food Processor II is a professional nutrition/diet analysis system with
a comprehensive database of 2400 foods and thirty nutrients researched from over
four hundred sources of scientific information.  It is one of the most complete
nutrition databases available anywhere today!  There are very few of the
missing values found in most nutrition and diet programs, and we continue to
research and provide upgrades.

With this Demo version, you will be able to perform most of the functions of the
full program and get an idea of how the system operates.  But this version will
not perform all functions; that's what the full system is for.


The following is enclosed with this Demo Disk:

o	An instruction booklet to provide you with the basics and some
	suggestions on how to use the program.

o	All 2400 foods come with this disk and nutrient data has been provided 
	for the first two hundred items to allow you to see how the analyses 
	work.

o	Comments from reviewers and users.

o	A sample list of our customers.

o	A brochure/order form that describes the functions of the program.


The Complete Food Processor II program comes with:

o	Operator's Manual with information on how to use the program as well as
	reference information on nutrition.

o	An alphabetical index list of all 2400 foods.

o	Sources and references for the nutrient data.

o	A special 150+ page compilation of nutrient information called
	"Food Sources of Vitamins & Minerals".  A valuable resource!

o	100% Satisfaction Guarantee!


Once you purchase the program, all future versions will be available to you at
a discounted price.  We value our customers!

We think you will discover that this system is extremely versatile.  It is fast,
easy to use and affordable.  We have had professionals with systems costing
$5000 and more replace them with this single program.
