The Real Scoop: Tillamook and Tefi Pessoa Bring Ice Cream Awareness to NYC
In an exciting partnership, Tillamook and media personality Tefi Pessoa are on a mission to enlighten ice cream lovers across New York City about the difference between real ice cream and frozen desserts. This initiative kicks off with an eye-catching pop-up called
The Real Scoop Newsstand, located at Astor Place in the East Village, and runs until July 25 at 7 p.m.
The collaboration is not only about raising awareness; it also comes with a delicious twist: for a limited time, NYC residents can enjoy
FREE Tillamook Ice Cream on-site! From July 23 to August 6, fans can visit the pop-up for a taste of real ice cream and a chance to win free ice cream for a whole year through their online sweepstakes. This campaign is fueled by the shocking statistic that nearly half of Americans have confused frozen dairy desserts for real ice cream, leading to Tefi's catchphrase, "With me, what you see is what you get — but that's not always the case in the freezer aisle."
Tefi Pessoa, well-known for her down-to-earth takes on pop culture, aims to demystify the complexities of the freezer aisle. "When Tillamook shared that nearly half of Americans have unintentionally bought a frozen dairy dessert thinking it was real ice cream, I just knew I had to get the word out," she stated. This sentiment resonates with her dedication to authenticity across various facets of life, including ice cream.
Visitors to The Real Scoop Newsstand can dive deeper into this delightful world. Besides enjoying ice cream, they can step into a podcast studio to record their personal stories or “real scoops” about ice cream and relationships. The goal is to build a community that appreciates high-quality dairy products, with Tefi encouraging participants to share their scoops on social media.
