Celebrate America's 250th Anniversary with Mission Foods

This summer, Mission Foods is inviting everyone to join in the celebration of a significant milestone in American history: the 250th anniversary of independence. The A250 summer campaign encourages families and friends to gather around the grill, share delicious meals, and create memorable moments together.

A Patriotic Grilling Initiative

The A250 campaign launched on Memorial Day and is set to run throughout the summer, reinforcing Mission’s commitment to bringing people together through great food. The promotion is particularly timely as it aligns with the celebrations for America's Semiquincentennial, a fitting tribute to the unity and spirit of the nation.

As part of this initiative, Mission Foods has teamed up with Blackstone Products, a leader in outdoor griddles that offer high-quality and affordable grilling options. Together, they aim to inspire cooking enthusiasts with exciting new recipes and practical grilling tips through a range of engaging content across social media platforms and YouTube shows.

Grilling Features with Blackstone

The partnership with Blackstone will showcase Mission's popular tortillas and tortilla chips across four beloved YouTube shows. Viewers can look forward to:

1. Let's Give It A Try with Todd
2. Easy Weeknight Meals with Taylor
3. Bruce Mitchell on the Bayou
4. La Cocina De Karina

These shows will deliver a variety of delicious grilling recipes using Mission products, igniting creative culinary ideas for cooking at home.

Exciting Recipes to Try

To kick off the celebration, Mission Foods is sharing three irresistible recipes that are perfect for summer grilling:

• - Grilled Southwest Chicken Dip: A deliciously smoky appetizer ideal for sharing, featuring Mission Tortilla Strips for dipping.
• - Grilled Flank Steak Quesadilla: Juicy grilled steak enveloped in a warm Mission tortilla, paired with melted cheese and roasted peppers to tantalize the taste buds.
• - Grilled Portobello Mushroom Wraps with Avocado Chimichurri: A plant-based option that highlights grilling versatility, proving that the grill is not just for meat lovers.

In-Store Celebrations

Shoppers across the nation will notice the A250 campaign embraced in stores through eye-catching displays. Look for tortilla towers and festive chip units that celebrate this landmark anniversary. Additionally, consumers can enjoy savings with a special coupon offer to save $1.00 when purchasing two Mission Tortillas or Tortilla Chips.

Satish Mohanraju, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Mission Foods, expressed enthusiasm about the campaign, saying, "America's 250th birthday is a milestone worth celebrating with every family at every table. At Mission Foods, we’ve had the privilege of being part of American mealtimes for decades—whether it’s Taco Tuesdays or backyard cookouts. The Semiquincentennial serves as a reminder of how food unites us, and there’s no better way to honor 250 years of this great nation than by sharing a meal with loved ones."
