Food2.com Cooks Up Summer Contest with MySpace

New Food Website and Popular Social Networking Platform Combine to Launch
Creative Food Film Contest with Winning Film Debuting at New York City Wine &
Food Festival
NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--
Food2.com is a new website that combines food, drink and pop culture into fun,
fast bites. Since its launch in May, Food2 has attracted more than one million
visits from food and pop culture fans. Now Food2 and MySpace, in partnership
with DeLallo Authentic Italian Foods, are inviting the world to join the Food2
First Annual Summer Challenge. (http://www.myspace.com/food2)

"Food2 found a significant audience on social platforms before the website even
launched," explains Deanna Brown, president of Scripps Networks Digital,
operator of Food2.com, "so, partnering with MySpace for Food2`s First Annual
Summer Challenge makes perfect sense. MySpace is all about connecting; sharing
food and film are some of the best ways for people to connect."

To participate in the Food2 First Annual Summer Challenge, users simply create a
short film about food that embraces the spirit of Food2.com -- a director's cut
that says: fun, tasty, creative! Film entries must be uploaded to the official
Food2 MySpace page at myspace.com/food2 by August 15, 2009. A panel of judges
will select ten finalists to be featured on Food2 where fans can rate their
favorite from August 24 until September 18, 2009. The user ratings will be
combined with judges` scores to determine the Food2 First Annual Summer
Challenge champion.

The grand prize winner will have the chance to screen their masterpiece for some
of the biggest culinary tastemakers at the New York City Wine & Food Festival in
October. Full entry rules and prize package information may be found at
myspace.com/food2.
