We have Plainville sliced/pressed turkey in No. Virginia. It is very tasty.
I’m assuming (also checking) that it applies only to “ground” turkey meat and not other forms.
At least the article gave the production date range which is crucial for checking a product.
On their sealed package Hickory Smoked Organic Turkey Breast (sliced) there is no production date, only a USE BY date. This sliced turkey says: Organic Turkey Raised is never ever given antibiotics: Organic Ono-GMO Vegetarian Diet Fed; No Added Growth Hormones; Humanely Raised; Free Range, Gluten Free and Casein Free. FULLY COOKED, Ready To Eat., Distributed by Plainville Brands, LLC, New Oxford, PA. KEEP REFRIGERATED.
I feel safe eating this product. Ground meats can be the problem re Salmonella. Check your ground turkey information label printed out by the store you got it from.
Just to be safe!
I had to ask because Wegmans and Plainville are names not common in Minnesota, if at all.
Plainville has always prided itself in growing quality turkeys with as little abuse to the animals as possible. They used to let them be free range, but wild birds started infiltrating the farm and bringing disease, so they built large open air pavilions that were just a roof with screened sides so they could still live outside in the fresh air and sunshine.
Not sure why they left NY but probably due to NY’s business friendly climate.
Wanna bet the plant sourced to the outbreak employs illegals...?
