Consumers can call, live chat on jennieo.com/hotline/ or text "TURKEY" to 73876 for advice on all thing's turkey
WILLMAR, Minn., Oct. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The makers of the JENNIE-O turkey brand, a category leader and one of the top turkey brands in the United States, announced today that the 1-800-TURKEYS hotline will be live for a 17th consecutive year, starting Nov. 1, for consumers seeking support with their holiday meal planning through to day-of preparations.
Earlier this year, JENNIE-O? polled Americans in every state about their Thanksgiving preparation, must-haves, traditions -- even their plans for leftovers. According to the survey, conducted by Talker Research on behalf of the JENNIE-O brand team, most people take up to two weeks to plan and cook their Thanksgiving meal. The experts at the JENNIE-O brand have been providing hotline turkey advice in November for the better part of two decades, assisting consumers across the country, including those in states like Delaware, where residents begin prepping 17 days in advance, and Virginia, where planning the menu takes an average of 16.6 days.
"We know Thanksgiving is a treasured holiday across the nation and we are always looking for new ways to expand our resources even further," said Kim Anderson, senior brand manager for the JENNIE-O? brand. "This year we are offering our trusted hotline as we always do, alongside several new menu ideas to cater to hosts and hostesses alike who want shortcuts to save time, are having smaller gatherings, or are looking for new ways to prepare their turkey."
