Avian Influenza is significantly affecting the nation’s turkey population and the subsequent supply of raw materials. There are turkeys available, but how long supply will last is unknown. So, if you haven’t ordered your Thanksgiving turkey yet, you should think about doing so soon. You can just keep it frozen until it’s time to prep for your big meal! However, there are also many great center of the plate food service items that you can substitute for turkey this season. Serving something different that offers great taste and a unique presentation can be a welcome change for those you serve and bring you increased sales this holiday season!
