Awareness of &#8220;got milk?&#8221; is over 90% nationally and it is considered one of the most important and successful campaigns in history. The &#8220;got milk?&#8221; trademark is a federally registered trademark and service mark that was licensed by the National Dairy Board in 1995 for use in its advertising, including their long-running &#8220;Milk Mustache&#8221; campaign. The CMPB&#8217;s Spanish-language campaign began in 1994 using the tagline &#8220;Familia, Amor y Leche&#8221; (Family, Love and Milk). The &#8220;toma leche&#8221; (Drink Milk) campaign replaced it in 2006 in order to better align the English and Spanish language work. The CMPB is funded by all <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span> milk processors and is an instrumentality of the California Department of Food and Agriculture.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prni_dvprnejpgd6dfleft\" style=\"WIDTH: 100%; TEXT-ALIGN: left\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"prnejpgd6dfleft\" title=\"California Milk Processor Board\" border=\"0\" alt=\"California Milk Processor Board\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/620896\/CMPB__toma_leche__Logo.jpg\"\/><\/div>\n<p>Photo &#8211; <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/620897\/California_Milk_Processor_Board___Rosca.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/620897\/California_Milk_Processor_Board___Rosca.jpg<\/a> <br \/>Logo &#8211; <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/620896\/CMPB__toma_leche__Logo.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/620896\/CMPB__toma_leche__Logo.jpg<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>SOURCE  California Milk Processor Board<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"xn-content\">\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">SAN CLEMENTE, California<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-chron\">Dec. 18, 2017<\/span> \/PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE\/ &#8212; Honoring one of the most cherished holiday traditions in the Latino community,\u00a0the California Milk Processor Board \u2013 creators of the iconic got milk?\u00a0and <i>Toma Leche <\/i>campaigns \u2013 will unveil on <span class=\"xn-chron\">Jan. 5, 2018<\/span> Los Angeles&#8217; largest-ever <i><span class=\"xn-person\">Rosca de Reyes<\/span><\/i>, traditionally enjoyed on &#8220;Three Kings Day.&#8221; The <i>rosca<\/i>, a ring-shaped sweet bread adorned with&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":58890,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-58889","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entretenimiento"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58889","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58889"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58889\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58890"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58889"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58889"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=58889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
