Bumble Bee Foods Giveaway – Great Prize Pack!

I am once again honored to be a member of the Bumble Bee Foods Bee Squad, which including them sponsoring my entire trip to BlogHer ’11.  I wore a Bumble Bee Tuna t-shirt both days of the conference, and both days I had at least one person notice my shirt and either say something positive about loving Bumble Bee Tuna, or singing me a bit of the Bumble Bee Tuna Song from the commercials, like this one - http://youtu.be/zjHvmbYk-Dg

I was already a Bumble Bee customer when I joined the Bee Squad, but my palate was limited to chunk or solid tuna.  The winner of this giveaway is going to get the same chance I did to try other Bumble Bee products and find out for themselves just how good they are! (Well, I have to be honest, I haven’t had the salmon because I don’t like it at all in any form lol).

This huge prize pack is what the winner of the giveaway will win:

Bumble Bee apron
Bumble Bee pen
2 Bumble Bee recipe cards

As a Bumble Bee brand ambassador, I’ve got great news to share with you about how Bumble Bee foods is helping people live healthier lives! American household brand Bumble Bee Foods announced today it has rebranded its interactive health and wellness program to promote a healthy lifestyle to more people. The program, formerly BeeWell Miles, is now BeeWell for Life. Through the program Web site www.beewellforlife.com, other online communities and on-the-ground events, BeeWell for Life provides resources and tools to encourage consumers toward a healthy, active lifestyle.

Participants in BeeWell for Life who log the miles they walk, run or bike are eligible for various prizes and help make a difference for Breast Cancer Network of Strength. For each mile logged through www.beewellforlife.com between now and October 31, 2010, Bumble Bee will donate 15¢ per mile. When one million miles are logged, the company will make an additional $50,000 contribution, for a total donation of $200,000.

The BeeWell for Life website is packed with tips on how to be more active as well as recipes and daily menus from registered dietitians Willow and Stephanie. Here’s a recipe for a delicious tuna salad that uses Bumble Bee’s new Sensations seasoned tuna – which is delicious!
