Let's Talk Turkey!

Yesterday on this here blog, I recommended the Jennie-O Turkey Pot Roast as a thing of great convenience, terrific value and exquisite flavor. Many of you have written me that you've been able to find them in your local Costco, Kroger, Ralphs or other retail outlet. Good for you. Some of you have written to say you've tried one and it's everything I say it is. Good for both of us.

A couple of folks have written to express confusion between what I'm touting and other Jennie-O turkey products. They make a lot of different ones, including the ones in their So Easy line. My recommendation applies only to the Jennie-O Turkey Pot Roast…and by the way, if you go to the Jennie-O website, it does not seem to be there under All Products. It's the best thing they make and it ain't on their site.

It especially should not be confused, as some of you have done, with their So Easy line of quick-to-cook meals. I've tried a few of them. Didn't like the Turkey Meatloaf. Didn't like the Turkey Salisbury Steak. I kinda like the Turkey Breast Roast but it's not in the same league as the Turkey Pot Roast, which is a completely different thing.  Some stores also carry a Turkey Breast Slices package which is the same thing as the Turkey Breast Roast, only cut up differently.  Anyway, the product  I like is the Turkey Pot Roast.  Say it with me: Turkey Pot Roast.

This March, I fully intend to eat Jennie-O Turkey Pot Roast along with the Classic Creamy Tomato Soup from the Souplantation.  That's right: March is Classic Creamy Tomato Soup Month at all outlets of Souplantation, some of which go by the name Sweet Tomatoes.  In the past here, I've praised and surely overpraised this soup but it's really, really good.
