Come Drink Your Milk, Says Salma Hayek
Award-winning actress Salma Hayek and celebrity TV chef Ellie Krieger are teaming up with the National Milk Mustache “got milk?” Campaign to launch The Breakfast Project to help more Americans enjoy breakfast at home and be sure to set the table with milk.
The goal is to makeover America’s mornings so families can have a more nourishing and delicious start – which can have a powerful impact on the rest of their day, and even their lives.

“I recognize how valuable it is to begin the day with a healthy breakfast that includes milk. It’s a special time that I can share with my family, and I feel good that my daughter is getting the best start possible to her day.”
