Mr. Food Television Segments Salute the Military

Fort Lauderdale, FL (May 1, 2010) —Art Ginsburg, aka Mr. Food, is taking his show on location to once again salute the military during the Navy’s Fleet Week in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He will be taping several segments aboard the USS Porter for airing in June 2010 on his nationally syndicated television segment, which is seen in more than 120 TV markets on local network news.
 

“As a former Navy man, I am proud to be invited aboard the USS Porter as part of our continued efforts to honor everyone serving in the military, and their families, whenever possible. I look forward to meeting and having the opportunity to thank the sailors in person for all that they do to protect us,” said Ginsburg.
 

The shows being taped aboard the Porter will feature a traditional Navy recipe for Baking Powder Biscuits that has a history dating back to the late 1800s. Also to be covered will be the Good Egg Breakfast that’s being hosted on the ship by a group of America’s egg farmers as part of the national Good Egg Project.
 

Ginsburg’s commitment to the troops extends even further, as an additional segment for Memorial Day is also being taped to salute fallen veterans and their families.
