Serious Eats (November 13, 2009)
"Still don't have a turkey plan this year? Then we've got a contest for you. The good folks at D'Artagnan are providing us with a turkey a day to give away to one lucky Serious Eats reader from today until Sunday, November 22.*
"D'Artagnan is a purveyor of many things delicious—from pâtés to sausages, foie gras to wild mushrooms, game meat to truffles. But right now we're especially interested in their turkeys...."
Well, I suppose an organic turkey is better than an inorganic turkey.
Yes, I know: they don't mean that.
"...D'Artagnan's certified organic birds are fed organic grains and pure spring water—no protein supplements, no added poultry or fish byproducts, no pesticides or herbicides, and no antibiotics or growth hormones. The result is a bird with great flavor...."
They're probably right. I won't even make a crack about those organic turkeys needing hand-loomed jogging bloomers.
Since Apathetic Lemming of the North is read around the world (World Wide Web, remember?), I've got bad news for quite a few readers: this turkey contest is available only to people living in the continental United States.
