National Family Meals Month™ is coming to a close, but the family meals celebration is still going strong. Here are some of the ways the food retail industry is helping consumers share more meals together.
Food Manufacturers—The Kraft Heinz Company and Unilever
Many food manufacturers are supporting National Family Meals Month on social media like Unilever’s brand Hellman’s and The Kraft Heinz Company’s brand Oscar Mayer:
National Cattlemen’s Beef Association
Shari Steinbach, a food and nutrition strategist, in partnership with National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, shared tips and tricks to make easy family meals with beef on a news segment. Her tips included using versatile ingredients, using cooking technology, and featuring family favorites. She also showcased two beef recipes- Beef Lasagna and Roast Beef Wraps.
National Cattlemen’s Beef Association also supported National Family Meals Month on twitter.
Fareway Stores
Fareway Stores helped customers share more meals through an omnichannel approach. Weekly recipes available at their meat counters, magazine and online.
