Revised: 'Secretary of Taste' Appointed to Endorse Domino's American Legends(TM) Specialty Line
Taste Stimulus Package Offers Cheesy Crusts and Premium Toppings to the Country
Domino's Pizza, the world leader in pizza delivery (NYSE: DPZ), is introducing the Secretary of Taste, a fictional character that will first appear today in national advertising touting Domino's American Legends(TM), its new line of specialty pizzas. In a time when Americans are forced to cut back on almost everything, the Secretary of Taste is proud to endorse Domino's American Legends as the centerpiece of his taste stimulus package, offering 40 percent more cheese than a Domino's regular hand-tossed pizza, cheesy crusts and delicious combinations of premium toppings.
"These pizzas are packed with so much bold taste in every bite, I had to endorse them as a part of my taste stimulus package," says the Secretary of Taste. "These specialty pizzas are as American as apple pie, and they will comfort young and old through these tough times. I've even lobbied for 40 percent more cheese and the approval of America's Dairy Farmers."

Bogusky will include a series of television spots featuring the Secretary of
Taste addressing the nation from his office. The spots began airing
