Turkey Shopping

     Turkeys! With Thanksgiving approaching it is very important to pick the best turkey for your family. "How do you achieve that ?" one may ask. The first and most important step is to check the expiration date on the turkey's packaging.Be sure  that the date of purchase, and the expected preparation date is within good range. Your family's health is very important, and a spoiled turkey can be toxic.Next, be sure you purchase the right size turkey. Count the amount of people you expect to serve, and purchase the right size bird, accordingly. A little trick that I use, is to assume that each person will eat a pound of turkey.Most likely no one will eat that much turkey, but that ensures that I have enough food to feed everyone. Last but least, consider your finances. It will not be smart to purchase a turkey that is too expensive for your pockets. Shopping wisely is always the best policy. Gobble, Gobble !
