Musselman’s Helps To Fight Breast Cancer *Giveaway*

January 6, 2010 by Caryn 

This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by.  The winner is Jen Eason. Congrats!

It’s not often that I write about causes.  But breast cancer is one such issue I feel strongly about.  Part of the reason I feel so strongly about it, is that I knew a girl in nursing school who was a breast cancer survivor.  She was misdiagnosed (due to her young age) and ended up with advanced stage breast cancer.  I always think about her when someone says those two words…breast cancer.  I hope one day a cure is found.  More than that, I hope one day someone discovers how to successfully prevent or even eradicate the disease.

Musselman’s (a company I’ve had the privilege of working with on several occasions), announced last week that it will help in the fight against breast cancer.  The company has pledged to donate ten cents to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) for every package of Musselman’s Natural Apple Sauce purchased in January.  The NBCF works to raise awareness for the disease via education and mammograms.

This video features Peggy Fleming talking about her experience with breast cancer and sharing details about what Musselman’s is doing to help others in need of support.

We like to eat applesauce just the way it is.  But you can also use applesauce in a variety of recipes including meals.  The site has over 60 recipes featuring applesauce including Appled Sweet Potatoes, Grilled Mango Chicken Wraps, and Apple Harvest Cake.  For more information on how Musselman‘s is partnering with the NBCF or information about their line of products, simply visit their site.

Win It! One of you will win a pink ribbon package, courtesy of Musselman’s with Natural Apple Sauce and recipes.  Simply leave me a comment with the name of another product or recipe you’d like to try from their site. Comments will close on January 20, 2010 at 10 PM PST.  One comment per person, please (unless you do the extra credit). US residents only. Duplicates and comments not including the above information will be disqualified. Comments are moderated. If you don’t see your comment in a reasonable amount of time, send me an email. Bloggers and non-bloggers may enter. If you don’t want to leave your email address, please be sure to check back for my announcement on the winner. Please note that winners must respond within 48 hours of being announced/contacted or another winner will be drawn.

    Apple Butter is something I’ve never tried… if I see it, I’d look. My mother is a recent survivor, so I like supporting the cause whenever I can.

    I agree with a couple others that the Strawberry Swirl Cheesecake sounds like a great recipe. Unfortunately, for some reason, my computer wasn’t able to pull up the recipe. Is it just me? The other recipe that looks great is the Lite Chocolate Raspberry Torte. But my computer wouldn’t let me pull up that recipe either! Torture!

    Also, I would love to try their Chocolate Creme filling. I did not realize they made fillings.

    I just love applesauce. I use it all the time to lower the calories and fat going into my baking.

    Thank you for the chance to win!

    I have already made nut bread with Musselman’s Applesauce, it was great! We keep this brand of applesauce in the house always, as my youngest son likes to whir it in the blender with protein powder before/after work outs. Something that I would really love to try is their Healthy Picks Blueberry Pomegranate Applesauce. Sounds delicious! Since I lost my mom to breast cancer, I am very pleased that Musselman’s is helping to fight breast cancer. jgs0925 at gmail dot com
