In Search of Real Food is a unique online experience for food lovers everywhere -- an interactive platform for everyday cooks to share recipes and stories of their favorite REAL foods. The site allows consumers to be the stars of their own cooking videos by uploading content with original recipes and the inspiration behind them. The goal of In Search of Real Food is to show consumers how simple and nutritious it is to make food that's REAL to them, with familiar ingredients, great flavor and flair.
Starting today, In Search of Real Food host, Dave Lieberman, is calling on food lovers everywhere to join the conversation and submit video, photos and stories of their favorite REAL food recipes and memories, by visiting Yahoo! Food (http://food.yahoo.com/realfood). Submissions will be showcased on Yahoo! Food along with other REAL food cooks and their regional and cultural specialties.
In addition to consumer generated content, the Web site will feature an original Web-based 12-episode series hosted by Dave Lieberman. Dave will be cooking alongside everyday consumers, top chefs, and in unexpected locations around the country. From the legendary Jacques-Imo's Cafe of uptown New Orleans to a clambake in New York City and a Gospel Brunch in Austin, food enthusiasts will have the opportunity to follow Dave's cooking adventures as he travels the country In Search of Real Food. A new episode of the series will air each week, beginning on June 28.
"We've always been about what's simple and real. Whether it's the quality ingredients in our jar or the real experiences people have when they share food made with our Mayonnaise," said Brian Orlando, Sr. Brand Manager for Hellmann's/ Best Foods. "This campaign leverages available technology to have a conversation about real food with consumers, offering recipe ideas and a forum to share a point of view about food that is relevant to everyday cooks, including moms trying to decide what to feed their family."
With its strong social media and programming capabilities and a highly engaged audience of millions, Yahoo! Food was a natural choice as a partner for the campaign. "In Search of Real Food further connects the Yahoo! audience to their passion for food. This innovative experience combines the best of Yahoo!'s community offerings and video with Hellmann's commitment to real food," said Amy Iorio, general manager of Yahoo! Lifestyles.
The site is interactive and educational, offering multi-media content, including the ability to watch the series, view, save and contribute recipes, read Dave's blog posts, and ask questions about food topics.
