Aretha Franklin is ready to serve Patti LaBelle some competition with her forthcoming line of food that will include high protein, baked chicken and her special chili and gumbo, as well as low-fat options for heart health conscious folks.
Following the success of Patti’s sweet potato pies, Aretha spoke to Evrod Cassimy, Morning Anchor of Local 4 News Today in Detroit, and told him that even though she has yet to sample one of LaBelle’s hyped up pies, she is warning the diva get ready to move her pies “to the side!” Franklin revealed that she’s already met with a food group out of Phoenix to start developing her food products for store shelves.
