Milk does not last long in my house and it was the same way growing up for both my husband and I. We are huge fans and how could we not be? Milk has so many wonderful health benefits and nothing beats a cold glass of milk with some chocolate chip cookies. Mmm…am I making you crave some right now? I know I am. So what’s better than an event that celebrates yummy, yet good for you, milk?
According to the got milk? website: From March to August, America’s milk processors are traveling coast-to-coast with the Drink Well. Live Well. Tour to encourage Americans to not only live well, but drink well with milk. Milk is naturally nutrient-rich like no other beverage, some may even say milk is nature’s wellness drink. Providing an array of benefits in every glass, milk has been endorsed by more than 250 celebrities and its benefits are supported by hundreds of scientific studies. Drinking milk is one of the simplest things you can do every day and feel good about, for you and your family.
At tour events, you can experience free, interactive activities including:
- Health assessments from registered dietitians
- Relaxing 5-minute wellness chair massages
- Delicious milk smoothies courtesy of your local dairy
- Posing for your very own souvenir Milk Mustache photo
In addition, visitors will receive a copy of the New Face of Wellness: A Look at America’s Milk Drinkers” Report that shares information about the iconic got milk? Milk Mustache campaign, the celebrities who have endorsed milk over the years and the health advantages of being a milk-drinker. “
Doesn’t this sound like fun?
