Droga5's Yiayia Returns for Athenos

Yiayia, Athenos' disapproving Greek grandmother, is back in a new digital series from Droga5 launching today. 

 

A cooking show with a twist, "Cooking with Yiayia" is comprised of four humorous 30-second web videos featuring Chef Jessica showcasing a variety of feta recipes with unfiltered, old-world guidance from Yiayia -- who disapproves of anything that isn't authentically Greek. Fortunately, Athenos feta cheese is made the Greek way and is Yiayia-approved.

 

 

The video series is part of a new marketing campaign from Athenos designed to educate consumers about the versatility of feta cheese. The campaign includes a redesigned www.Athenos.com site which more easily highlights quick and simple feta recipes, four 30-second "Cooking with Yiayia" web videos (view here), four x 15-second companion recipe videos showcasing fast, easy ways to integrate feta into common dishes (view here), and a print campaign running in a variety of women's lifestyle and entertainment publications.

All new web videos may be seen at: www.Athenos.com and will run on a variety of digital sites starting 5/20.
