Daisy Brand(R) Cottage Cheese Invites Americans to Freshen Up Your Fridge

Contest promotes steps to a healthier lifestyle, offers chance to win a
Whirlpool(R) LATITUDE(TM) refrigerator

DALLAS, June 10 /PRNewswire/ -- The first step in maintaining a healthy
lifestyle starts in the refrigerator, but it can be difficult when the
refrigerator is filled with tempting, empty-calorie foods. The Freshen Up Your
Fridge contest sponsored by Daisy Brand Cottage Cheese encourages Americans to
freshen up their refrigerators by removing unhealthy items and adding more
fresh, all-natural foods. One grand prize winner of the Freshen Up Your Fridge
contest will receive a year's supply of Daisy Brand Cottage Cheese, a spacious
new Whirlpool LATITUDE refrigerator and an in-home visit by a registered
dietitian to help them learn how to select healthier foods for their
refrigerators.

"So many Americans try to eat healthy, but don't realize that many foods
contain unnecessary additives and preservatives," said Kim Galeaz, registered
dietitian. "I'm partnering with Daisy Brand Cottage Cheese to show how simple
it is to freshen up your refrigerator and choose more great-tasting,
nutrient-rich foods, like Daisy Brand Cottage Cheese."

Kim's Top Five Fresh Refrigerator Tips Include:
1. Fill your refrigerator with fresh fruits and vegetables. Fruits and
vegetables are packed with disease-fighting antioxidants, vitamins and
minerals. I recommend you load up on fresh, in-season Summer-time
fruits
and veggies, like apricots, blueberries, strawberries, broccoli, green
beans, snow peas, spinach, and spring baby greens.
2. Stock more nutrient-rich foods. Naturally nutrient-rich foods provide
valuable vitamins and minerals, and have fewer preservatives and
additives than most other foods. Fruits, vegetables and cottage cheese
are three convenient and nutrient-rich snacks to keep on hand in your
refrigerator for growing kids, teens and active adults.
3. Focus on high-quality protein. High quality protein sources such as
skinless fish, poultry, lean beef and pork, cottage cheese and eggs,
provide all the essential amino acids necessary for building and
repairing the body's cells and boosting immunity. One half-cup
serving of Low Fat Daisy Brand Cottage Cheese is packed with 14 grams
of
high quality protein, yet contains only 90 calories. And compared to
other high quality proteins, Daisy Brand Cottage Cheese is very budget
friendly.
4. Avoid the danger zone. If you want your foods to stay fresh and be safe
to eat, keep your refrigerator at the proper temperature of 40 degrees
Fahrenheit or below. To do this, you can invest in a refrigerator
thermometer, keep it on one of the refrigerator shelves and check it
regularly. Be sure to avoid the "danger zone" (40 to 140
degrees F), which can result in food spoilage, bacterial growth and
family members getting sick.

5. First in, first out. Keep fresh foods safe and at peak quality/taste by
using the "FIFO" rule: First In, First Out. Use whatever items
are the oldest first, and continually rotate foods to ensure freshness
and reduce waste.

Beginning now through Aug. 31, 2009, consumers can log on to

could be improved through a fresh refrigerator makeover. One lucky winner
