Buying A Turkey: An Annotated List of Works Cited
Butterball Turkey Company. "Butterball's Top Ten."
http://www.butterball.com/pk97faqs.html (11 November 1997).
In its web page, "Butterball's Top Ten," the Butterball Turkey Company answers its ten most commonly asked questions about turkey. These questions range from "What's the best way to thaw a turkey?" to "How can leftover turkey be stored safely?" Butterball experts respond to these questions with helpful hints. The question on this web page I feel will be useful in my research is "Should I buy a frozen or fresh turkey?" I plan on including the Butterball expert's response when I discuss the benefits of both frozen and fresh turkeys.
Honeysuckle White. "All about Turkey."
http://www.honeysucklewhite.comlhtml/whole-turkeys.htmI (11 November 1997).
This web page, maintained by Honeysuckle White, offers suggestions for.buying and preparing whole turkeys for Thanksgiving dinner. More specifically, the page provides the reader with hints on six turkey related topics: selecting a turkey, buying the right size turkey, thawing your bird, cooking the turkey, carving the turkey, and handling leftovers. I plan to focus on the information available in the sections "Selecting a Turkey" and "Buying the Right Size Whole Turkey" for my speech. These sections provide information on how to figure the size of turkey you need knowing the number of people you will be feeding and how to choose between frozen and fresh whole turkeys.
Norbest, Incorporated. "How to Select the Right Turkey for Your Family."
http://www.norbest.coni/norbest/select.htm 11 November 1997).
On this web page, Norbest presents a list of guidelines for choosing a Thanksgiving turkey. The list includes six important factors consumers must consider when selecting a turkey. These factors are size, grade, sex, baste, timer, and whether the turkey is frozen or fresh. I plan to discuss four of these factors in my speech: size, grade, sex, and whether the turkey is frozen or fresh.
United States Department of Agriculture. Agricultural Marketing Services. How to Buy Poultry . Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, 1995.
The USDA, in this pamphlet, outlines the two most significant factors a consumer should consider when buying poultry products: grade and class. The USDA defines what "Grade A" means for consumers and explains why purchasing "Grade A" meat is important. The pamphlet also provides consumers hints to what class (young or mature) is best when purchasing a whole bird. I plan to use the information provided on USDA grading in my speech to class. This information will help me explain to the class what grade to look for when purchasing a Thanksgiving turkey.
United States Department of Agriculture. Agricultural Marketing Services. USDA Meat Grading and Certification Service. Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, 1995.
The USDA's pamphlet on meat grading discusses the importance of meat grading as well as the processes involved. It gives brief definitions of the grades that meats can be assigned. The pamphlet also briefly explains the differences between meat graders and supervisors, and provides the number of each working in the United States. The section in the pamphlet I plan to use in my speech is the paragraph on the importance of meat grading. I will use the information provided in that section when I discuss the reason individuals need to consider the grade of the meat when purchasing a turkey.
