Foster Farms Celebrates Over 20 Years of Holiday Turkey Helpline

Livingston, Calif. /PRNewswire/ — For more than 20 years, Foster Farms turkey experts have advised thousands of home chefs facing turkey disasters and last-minute questions. From advice on storage and transport tips, to ideas for enviable leftovers, the Foster Farms Turkey Helpline is a trusted resource for consumers throughout the holiday season. This year, Foster Farms turkey experts will once again be on hand to help with a free, round-the-clock Turkey Helpline (1-800-255-7227). Additionally, home chefs can find holiday cooking inspiration with more than 170 special holiday turkey recipes available online at www.fosterfarms.com.

Foster Farms Turkey Helpline operators will be on-call 24 hours a day, seven days a week from November 18-30, including Thanksgiving Day. The Turkey Helpline experts can be reached at (800) 255-7227.

“We help home cooks with any turkey-related question or concern–large or small,” says Teresa Lenz, Foster Farms’ Consumer Affairs Manager who has been at the helm of the Turkey Helpline for 15 years. “We get questions from first-time cooks who may need advice on how much turkey to buy to feed their guests, and from experienced cooks experimenting with new recipes or equipment.”

In addition to the Turkey Helpline, the Foster Farms Web site (www.fosterfarms.com) is a comprehensive resource for the holiday season. The site features budget-friendly holiday meal suggestions, cooking and preparation guides, carving instructions, nutrition information, food safety tips, and praise-worthy recipes such as Terrific Turkey Tetrazzini, Rosemary Roasted Turkey and Maple Roast Turkey.
