Garner, N.C., (August 27, 2010) – Healthy eating is top of mind for many families, so it's no surprise that they're craving new menu options that are ideal for sensible grilling. Two new turkey products from Butterball, Fresh Ground Turkey in a chub package and Premium Turkey Franks, offer grilling aficionados better-for-you cooking options. Both have zero trans fat and contain no artificial ingredients, so consumers can feel good about serving up burgers and franks to family and friends at cookouts, tailgates, family gatherings and more.

"Grilling staples like an All-American burger or hot dog can be made healthier simply by choosing a leaner turkey product," says Kari Lindell, Butterball marketing director. "With these two new products, we're giving consumers a way to celebrate family meals without sacrificing health or taste."
