Idaho Potato Commission offers cash, prizes in ‘quiz’ contest

The Idaho Potato Commission is encouraging foodservice distributors, foodservice fresh produce buyers and their sales staffs to take a short online educational quiz that enters them into monthly drawings for cash and prizes.

Incentives for playing the IPC Foodservice Training Game include $500 gift cards, Cusinart Knife sets, Bluetooth Speakers, and Spuddy Buddy mascots.

To play the IPC Foodservice Training Game, participants must set up an account at potatolife.idahopotato.com/login. Once logged in, they can play the Idaho Potato game to have their name entered in one or more monthly drawings.

The commission will have drawings in June, July and August. Entrants who complete the quiz in June will be eligible for three drawings.  Those who wait to enter will have fewer chances to win, according to a news release from the commission.

More information about the game is at potatolife.idahopotato.com/login or through a commission foodservice regional director.
