A brand of salami (萨拉米香肠) known as Galileo is celebrating 75 years of making the cured(腌制的) meats by welcoming salami fans into their family with a chance to win a unique cooking experience in a seaside region of Italy.
But don't worry; you don't have to speak Italian. All you have to do is simply share a photo of yourself on Instagram using the hashtags #GalileoFamily and #Sweepstakes and tag @GalileoSalame. If you follow the rules of the contest, you are automatically entered for a chance to win a weeklong trip for two to Italy to explore the history and cooking riches of the seaside region.
"For the better part of a century, we've been curing authentic Italian salami with the idea of family and tradition," said Jeremy Kross, Brand Manager at Galileo, a company that was started in 1945 by Frank Sorba in San Francisco. "The 'Welcome to the Family' program celebrates our Italian heritage and, of course, the deliciousness of salami. "
The winners will learn about the history of the Galileo brand and explore incredible destinations there like Ancona, a city and seaport that sits along Italy's Adriatic coast; Mount Conero, known as a "small piece of heaven" on the Adriatic Sea with some of the clearest water; and finally, San Marino, said to be the world's oldest surviving republic. While in Sant'Angelo in Vado, the winners will visit La Tavola Marche, a unique hands-on cooking experience where guests can immerse themselves in Italian culture and food.
The trip for two will last for seven days, six nights, and is valued at $7,500 U. S. The contest ends on October 21, after which they will do a random drawing to determine the winner.
