The Better Majority of us enjoyed a thoroughly filling meal yesterday for Thanksgiving, for which we should ALL truly BE Thankful.  Something we may not Think about, though, is just how much food is thrown out after those Thanksgiving Feasts… 320 MILLION Pounds of Food is thrown away each year.  And That’s just after Thanksgiving.

Best way to Avoid the waste is to plan more accordingly as to the true Needs of our meals for any time of the year.

What About Those Leftovers? – Remember, Turkey should be eaten within 3 Days. – Casseroles and Potatoes are safe up to 5 Days. – Pumpkin Pie—and ANY Egg-based pie should be eaten or tossed at the 4 Day mark. – If you Do need leftovers to last longer, simply put them in the freezer. – Remember the SAFE Phrase: When In DOUBT, Throw It OUT!  https://www.butterball.com/how-to/food-safety-essentials

There are a lot of people in North Carolina.  But there are more than twice as many Turkeys.  According to a 2024 report by the USDA, there are 27 million turkeys across the state.  North Carolina is home to a little more than 11 million people, creating a 16 Million difference Between the two.  A detailed breakdown by county shows that 13 of the 100 North Carolina counties have more turkeys than residents.  Sampson County has by far the most, with nearly 6.5 million turkeys.—That’s enough for each Sampson resident to receive 106 turkeys each!  2 Turkeys new to the Triangle have traded in the farm life for the academic life after a Presidential Pardon—Gobble and Waddle—are now Education Ambassadors at North Carolina State University.  https://myfox8.com/news/north-carolina/13-north-carolina-counties-have-more-turkeys-than-residents-according-to-the-usda/
