Can we still trust turkeys?U.S. Turkeys are primarily grown indoors and are safe.

As a matter of caution, I would avoid Free Range turkeys which might have been exposed to migrating birds.

It is important to follow all proper food handling techniques.

Instructions indicate it is still safe to eat avian contaminated birds provided they are cooked appropriately.

At this time there is no indication that the poultry in the United States is contaminated.

Thank you so much for the information.  I feel better now that I ask.

Not to sound ignorant, but what is a "free range turkey?"  :)
