Viral TikTok brown sugar corn bread — the PERFECT late Friendsgiving (or other friends + food event!) crowd pleaser. It's the kind of crispy, gooey, buttery comfort food you can only get when cooking with real dairy. (If you have lactose-intolerant friends/loved ones, try swapping for lactose-free dairy products, or offer them some lactase tablets! 😜)

1. 1 8.5 oz box cornbread mix

2. 1/3 cup white sugar

3. 1/4 cup brown sugar

4. 1 egg

5. 1/3 cup whole milk

6. 1/3 cup sour cream

7. 4 tbsp salted butter, melted

8. 1 tbsp vanilla extract

9. 3 tbsp salted butter, room temp, divided

10. flaky salt

Friendly Thanksgiving reminder 🍂🍗🥘 that being grateful for the food you eat also means being grateful for the 2% of the population that works every day to grow and produce that food.

Sending gratitude to those folks today, even if I'll never meet you. 🥰

97% of Michigan's dairy farms are family-owned, and we thank those families today. Thank you, farmers!!

'Tis the season of gratitude. 🥰 Daily, soul-nourishing rituals like these create opportunities to ground yourself in appreciation for life’s wonders. 🍂🙏 Let dairy provide that occasion (along with milk's 13 essential nutrients), to care for your whole self alongside a quiet breakfast or a warm cup of hot cocoa.

With her final gymnastics season at UofM right around the corner, @sierrabbrooks takes a moment to reflect on her college career and some of her memorable accomplishments. Oh yeah… and her daily chocolate milk was there with her every step of the way.

For real tho: cheese can be a great, convenient budget option to add more protein and flavor into your diet when you're low on cash.

Fancy cheeses have their place, of course (it's called self-care 💅), but string cheese, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, and blocks of cheese tend to be more affordable and are genuinely a great way to add nutrients to any meal while also adding joy to your life. 😌🧀🙌

#ICYMI 👉 Move For Hunger successfully set a NEW GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the most cereal boxes toppled in a domino fashion. Along with sponsors @DetroitPistons, @kelloggsus, @krogerco, and more, we were part of an amazing team making this happen to raise awareness of food insecurity and waste in the US.

The team toppled a whopping 12,952 cereal boxes at the Henry Ford Detroit Pistons Performance Center! We're so proud to have been able to donate a gallon of milk for each cereal box donated by @kelloggsus and @krogerco !!

After the epic topple, all the cereal and milk went to @forgottenharvest and @gleanersfoodbank in Michigan, ensuring it reaches those who need it most. Join us in making history and helping families in need. Donate today at

You're never too cool to make dinner plans and discuss the intricacies of your favorite dishes for hours on end, js. 🤷 If a group is gonna pretend that food doesn't exist while I'm starving, we're gonna "nope" out of there. That's solidarity 😘

P.S. — Did you know cows are social animals who like to spend time with their friends? Around a dairy farm, you'll get to know which cows are besties, too! Plus, they've got access to fresh food, water, and bedding 24/7 to ensure they stay comfy.

Sorry y'all, but I've got a date with some street corn tonight 😘🌽

Elote is a popular street food across Mexico and Central America. Fire-roasted corn-on-the-cob drenched in crema and rolled in savory, cheesy goodness makes for a brilliantly dynamic and creamy treat. 🙌

🍽️ Enjoy using the recipe below or at our link in bio!

Ingredients 🧀
6 ounces Cotija cheese or mild feta cheese, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/3 cup Mexican crema or sour cream
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon ground chile piquin or ground red pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 ears fresh corn, husks and silks removed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Lime wedges

Instructions ✅
Place cheese in food processor. Cover and pulse until very finely crumbled (or finely crumble by hand). Pour into shallow dish. In small bowl combine crema or sour cream, mayonnaise, chile piquin or red pepper and salt. Set aside.

Brush corn with oil. Grill directly over medium-high heat for 12 to 25 minutes or until browned and beginning to char in spots.

Insert short bamboo skewers or corn holders into ends of corn ears. Brush corn with crema mixture. Then roll in cheese, gently pressing cheese onto corn. Serve with lime wedges.

There's a good reason that chocolate milk is the ultimate companion to spooky season... 😈👻🦴

The calcium in milk is easily used by our bodies for ☠️ vital functions! Plus, the complete protein, Vitamin D, and 11 other essential nutrients in dairy make it easier for your body to build & repair itself. You can try to get this nutrition from other foods (like 10 cups of raw spinach to get 1/4 of your daily value of calcium), but it's pretty hard to beat this classic!

Sending so much love it's SCARY 👻💕 to our friends at @theinstituteofdancers & @glennpackard for putting this together last year (had to bring it back) and our pals at @gonnaneedmilk for the inspiration to recreate their classic "got milk?" ad!! 🎃🍂🙏❤️

Anybody still thinking about the roman empire, or have we moved on from that?

Yes, I do think about the roman empire here and there... 😌 But cheese is on my mind at least 3x a day. 👌 How often do you think about 🧀 ?

We're so proud to have teamed up with @moveforhunger, @krogerco, @detroitpistons, @kelloggsus, and more to break a very breakfast-y GUINNESS WORLD RECORD!! 🥣🎉

Toppling a set of 12,952 cereal box "dominos" in order to #ToppleHunger, this partnership gave us at the United Dairy Industry of Michigan a super fun opportunity to donate 7,500 gallons of milk alongside the 7,500 boxes of cereal from Kellogg's and Kroger!

🗨️ from @forgottenharvest : "The endeavor is not just about breaking a record. It also seeks to raise awareness about significant food insecurity and food waste in the US where 34 million Americans don't know where their next meal is coming from. Here at FH we received 7,774 lbs of food to give back to the community."

🎥 from @moveforhunger

Thank you to everyone involved, and let's keep going to #ToppleHunger!! Head over to @moveforhunger to donate now! 🥰🥛🥣

#RG • @moveforhunger That’s right - we broke a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for most cereal boxes toppled in a dominoes fashion 💪🏻
