Linda, I think the turkeys our grandparents and parents bought didn't have the bacterial risks the big argro-busisness farm turkeys have. They were raised with the ability to roam and feed and weren't fed feed with antibiotics or injected with them. They were natural turkeys compared to these franken-birds that are sold today. Unless you are buying from a local organic farm, I wouldn't put stuffing inside myself.Originally Posted by Yosemite
This kind of makes me wonder how our parents, grand-parents, etc. survived.I honestly think people these days are far too concerned about bacteria.
On the lighter side, I had to explain to my darling DH today, that a tur-duck is not another breed of fowl, but just a turkey and duck rolled together in a roast like shape.
