The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., of Melville, has a new contest for its line of Greek-style yogurt and it's asking consumers to enter two-minute videos showcasing recipes containing the product. Deadline is April 17.

First prize for the Greek Gods Yogurt Video Contest is $2,500 cash. The winning video will be posted on a corporate website.

Top winners in the contest will also get a signed copy of a book written by Dean Karnazes, who also goes by the name Ultramarathon Man.

Karnazes, hired by Hain Celestial as a spokesman for its Greek Gods brand, is the author of "Run! 26.2 Stories of Blisters and Bliss." A video of Karnazes, along with contest rules, is at greekgodsyogurt.com.
