Build A Healthy Plate With Milk: MilkPEP Unveils MyPlate Ad In USA Today

The U.S. Department of Agriculture recently introduced the new MyPlate icon to remind Americans how to eat a healthy diet. The dairy group is prominently positioned next to the plate as a reminder that low-fat and fat-free dairy products are an important part of a nutritious meal.

In this morning's issue of USA Today, the Milk Processor Education Program placed a new ad to emphasize milk's important place on the table and its role in overall wellness, as shown through MyPlate.

"Positioning dairy choices right next to the plate on America's table is a great way to remind us of the importance of what we eat and drink," said Vivien Godfrey, MilkPEP CEO.
