legal ground turkey

[Guest guest]

I'd love to find some legal ground turkey to use. Both Jennie-O and Shady Brook

Farms brands say they also have natural flavors. I emailed the two companies,

and Jennie-O says in the frozen package, the natural flavor is pepper; Shady

Brook Farms says theirs is rosemary extract.

On the loop recently, it was mentioned that " natural flavors " are illegal.

Would these two items still be considered illegal?

No, I have not pursued getting this in writing on company letterhead. But I

would like to know if these items would be OK to use.

Thanks!

So ground meats aren't legal? Do they put additives in those

packages of ground meats/turkey etc?

Applegate Farms makes turkey burgers & all the ingredients say

are " organic turkey " . Would those be okay?

Thanks, Michele

Well, I do know that the Shady Brook Farms turkey isn't legal. I remember

looking at it when I first started scd. The only ground meat that we buy in

the grocery store has been the meat that is the grocery store brand. Have

you look at just you local grocery store ground beef or turkey? Of course,

you can also buy it from a farm if you'd like to go that route. Depending

on where you live, it may not be any more expensive to buy it that way. You

can check

www.eatwild.com

to see if there are farms in your area. Many farms also will ship an order

directly to you. We actually just started trying this route. We ordered

beef from a farm in our state, and it arrived mid week. It is more

expensive than WalMart, Sam's, Cosco, ect. It is no more expensive than our

local chain grocery stores though. It is grass fed, completely organic

beef. So like I said, you can check the Eat Wild site to see if there's a

farm that you want to go through. Otherwise, you should check you local

grocery store brand.

I agree that if the only ingredient is " organic turkey " , then it is fine.

On the other ground turkey someone was talking about, if they list " natural

flavors " as an ingredient... all kinds of things *can* be hidden under that

heading without being declared.... doesn't mean they ARE, just that they CAN be.

If the only ingredient they put in is " pepper " , then why don't they just say

" pepper " , instead of hiding it under the " natural flavors " label? That bugs me.

They must consider pepper their secret ingredient
