Festival Day with George Foreman
Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival
Last month, George Foreman Healthy Cooking hit the Food Network South Beach Wine & Food Festival presented by Food & Wine Magazine. The event ran the last weekend in February from Thursday to Sunday with an estimated 50,000 people attending over the 4-day period.
At the George Foreman booth in the Grand Tasting Tent right on the beach, our team was happy to personally meet and greet about 10,000 George Foreman fans. In addition to meeting some of the members of our team, visitors got to taste the recipe featured in this month’s newsletter, enjoy some free giveaways, sign up for a daily raffle of a 360 Grill™ and take a look at some of the latest and greatest grills – including the Power Grill™ Supreme featured in this month’s newsletter.
What was truly great for us was getting to meet all the longtime George Foreman grillers that came out to visit with us. Getting to reminisce about the first Champ™ Grill ever made and hearing all those fun stories about grilling burgers on a dorm room desktop in college is one of the best parts of our job here on the George Foreman team. It helps remind us that we work for a brand that’s been such a big part of people’s lives for a long time and that’s a really good feeling.
We’d like to take this opportunity to thank all the visitors that stopped by and shared their stories with us. We’d also like to thank the Taylor Corporation – our partner at the event – for providing the complimentary meat thermometers we gave away with our gift bags. To all our foodie readers that didn’t get the opportunity to attend this event, George Foreman will be participating in more events like this in the future, so we look forward to meeting you there! We’ll keep you posted through this newsletter, our blog and our Facebook page, so stay tuned!
