Hidalgo County braces for 10000 pounds of Thanksgiving turkey
Hidalgo County grocery managers forecast about 10000 pounds of turkey will be eaten locally this Thanksgiving. Prices run around 61 cents a pound, cheaper than hamburger and chicken, with stores stocking turkeys early in November and importing from El Paso distributors. Local producers like McNabb Turkey Farm note varied weights and strong demand as historians link the bird to early Europe, while nutritionists warn on proper storage and pacing to avoid indigestion.
