TURKEY ROASTERS GET BURNED

TURKEY ROASTERS GET BURNED



DONNERS GROVE, Ill. (Wireless Flash) – It isn’t just turkeys that get burned on Thanksgiving – so do the people roasting the turkey. That’s according to Carol Miller of the Butterball Turkey Talkline, which is inundated with wacky last-minute questions every year. Miller says one time a guy phoned in to tell her he forgot to thaw the turkey and wanted to know if he could just dump it in his aquarium for a few hours. Other callers have questions concerning stuffing the turkey with items besides dressing – including everything from sponges to toy cars. Although Miller and her staff have heard nearly every possible turkey problem, she sometimes has to wing it – like the time a woman asked if a cooked turkey could be eaten after it’s was tossed into a swimming pool.
