“DMI opened our eyes to dairy.”
That was one of the opening statements by Heather Mottershaw during our on-site visit to Taco Bell’s headquarters in Irvine, Calif., located in the greater Los Angeles area.
“DMI just brought such a different level of knowledge to us. Our focus is now cheese.”
Mottershaw should know as the product specialist has been with the Taco Bell brand for 13 years.
