"We are thrilled to launch Better Eats as it extends Everyday Health's mission to help users choose well," explained Mike Keriakos, President and Co-Founder, Everyday Health. "With our built in audience of almost 40 million consumers across the multiple platforms in which we deliver content, we are confident that Better Eats will become a top 3 food media property in 24 months."
