Joke's on China.
That ain't turkey.

If I have a drumstick, will my brain stop ticking?

Now I feel Hungary

Armour in the Chinks?

Next year, roast a puppy from the pound?

/no cats - they are stringy

Is there still a $20 surcharge if you want one with a jive ass?

awalkingecho: If I have a drumstick, will my brain stop ticking?

Are you watching X-Files with no lights on?

Dude. In Canada it's MAX 2$ a pound.

Nice. You may have my spare internet.

You go now! You here five hour!

inclemency: Dude. In Canada it's MAX 2$ a pound.

It's probably just Canada Goose that someone poached off their property and sold to the chains. There's a million of those damn things.

66 pounds for a 12lb. turkey? That's $105 US. Seems a bit steep. Five bucks at WalMart.

What if we don't serve the Turkey on the good China?

/sop up the greece

I think that price increase is only in Great Britain. Anyone know if US prices are affected?

It's all just part of the big plan. Next ten years we get all get in shape, the Chinese get fat, then one evening after whenever Chinese thanksgiving is, and the tryptophan kicks in, we invade!

I often blame this for our problems today...

Pert: Is there still a $20 surcharge if you want one with a jive ass?

BRAVO!

Let them eat tofurkey!

Just get more turkeys from the Moon. Because, space!

I'm trying really hard to give a fark about this.

Just bought ours this morning at the neighborhood Kroger (in CO they have a goofy name, don't ask.) $7.00 for 10.56#. It was something like a flat $7 up to 12# and a flat $9 over that.

It's more expensive over there because of those Turkey Taxes.
Going up this year! (new window)

I bought a 14lb one at Walmart last week for a bit under $10. Think it was around 69 cents per lb.

It's a bunch of gobbledy-gook.

Yet another reason I'm glad i don't live in Europe. just paid 59 cents a pound for a frozen turkey at Publix, true it was a sale price but they always have them on sale this time of year, I paid about the same last year as i remember

Well, if you figure a shotgun shell costs me about $1.50, then I am paying about 7 cents per pound for a free-range organic wild turkey that has not been fed antibiotics and pumped full of salt water like those nasty Frankenbirds you get in your grocer's freezer. So suck it, China.

But you have to pump it full of salt water yourself anyway, because there's no use at all in eating a turkey that hasn't been brined. And if you do, then you're doing it wrong.

I like turkey, a turkey dinner is great. I also like beer, beer is even better. Beer and turkey is just amazing together. The alchemy that occurs when turkey and beer combine in my GI tract, however, puts the New Jersey smell up there with Chanel 5.

Wrong, you luddite. We get CHEESE from the moon.

You are extraordinarily funny.

Really, I LITERALLY just wet myself laughing.

Keep on keeping on idiot!

Bought a 8 pound ham for 15.45 and got a free 12 pound turkey with it.

Suck it Europe.

I don't need turkey.

I just smoke a joint and toast and butter tastes like a feast

Teknowaffle:

I just looked into the costs here in Sweden, and at the local store they are about 10 bucks a kilo.

I'd take some blow at that price.

Does the Turkey cost more or is the Dollar worth less?

I call shenanigans.
My turkey is going to be $10 total when I spend at least $25 at vons. So, no... It is not $20 more than last year.

I beg to differ with you, but you only need to brine turkey if you are going to freeze it. Otherwise just wrap it in a weave of bacon, deep fry it in peanut oil, and you will be in heaven.

WTF? I bought our Thanksgiving turkey (USA) a week ago. 14 Lbs for $7.00! Somebody is doing it wrong.

Chinese girlfriends are known for eating the meat

But the coke is ok rite???

What in the ever-living fark is your problem?

Turkeys are running $0.59/lb at Tesco US(Fresh & Easy in CA, NV, and AZ), and the local Kroger stores are matching that. Don't know what Safeway/Walmart/Target are doing. So a 20 lb turkey runs around $12 US/8 pounds GB. Hams are running $.89/lb, spiral sliced for $1.29-1.49/lb. Jeez, 40-50 pounds GB for a 15 lb. turkey? That's a bit rich for me. We're going to have one turkey for Thanksgiving, and I'll get an extra one(about 10 lbs or so) and use it to make turkey tamales for Xmas. Green chile turkey tamales, red chile beef/pork tamales, we'll have Christmas on a plate!

/making myself drool

Got an 8 lb ham for $20.00, 12lb turkey was free.

I will concede that deep-fried turkey is excellent. My statement was generally aimed at the traditional roasters, and I neglected to account for that. My fault.
