Launching a Flavorful Campaign
The iconic flavor brand Lawry’s® has officially launched its new campaign, ‘Mama Said Lawry’s’, featuring the talented GRAMMY and Golden Globe nominated artist, Wiz Khalifa, alongside his beloved mother, Peachie. This initiative aims to celebrate mothers as the original flavor experts, highlighting the heartwarming connection between home-cooked meals and the family recipes that keep us coming back for more.
Emphasizing the Joy of Cooking Together
As summer approaches, Lawry’s invites families to embrace the spirit of cookouts with their signature seasonings, including Lawry’s Seasoned Salt and Lawry’s Garlic Salt.
