Butterball Turkey shortage-Thanksgiving 2013

[Kotsy]

A news report today just announced that the famous Thanksgiving favorite of the Butterball Turkey will be in short supply this year.

Thanksgiving is an all American holiday that will occur on Thursday, November 28th and the Butterball Turkey is one of the best Turkeys to roast out there. This year any Butterball Turkey that is fresh and over 16 lbs will be hard to come by. Butterball is stating frozen turkeys over 16 lbs will be plentiful.

So if you're cooking for a huge crowd, either get a frozen one that takes up to 4 days to defrost in your refrigerator or come up with a back up plan.

Time for this girl to go turkey hunting tomorrow.

What's Thanksgiving without the famous Butterball?

Well, there are plenty of frozen Butterball Turkey's available.

But I want a fresh 22 pound one...........will be searching starting Monday for one.

One local market is actually taking your name and giving out numbers to get one for the next shipment.

Imagine standing in line to get a Butterball Turkey? omg...........
