It's time to talk turkey and The Guys have a recommendation for the finest tasting turkeys for your holiday table. Todd Wickstrom of Heritage Foods USA joins The Guys to talk about "Heritage Breed Turkeys". Heritage Foods USA acts as a broker for small family owned and operated farms, helping to bring their wholesome products to the market. Most turkeys purchased today are the "broad breasted white" turkeys. This type of turkey is mass produced; they cannot fly or mate. Their top beaks are clipped so that the remaining beak works more like a shovel. Heritage Breed Turkeys eat naturally, grow at their typical rate and live outdoors. The taste is amazing. They are not cheap but they are fantastic!
These heritage breeds were once near extinction. Heritage Foods USA is helping keep these breeds alive by brining them to market. This year, Heritage is faced with a bit of a glut, as some of their major purchasers backed out. We need to help them. Do good by eating well. Order your Heritage turkey for Thanksgiving today. These birds aren't cheap but they are awesome. Heritage is offering our listeners and guests a 10% discount. Just click on the Heritage Foods USA banner to the right and order your turkey.
