Butterball Turkeytalk-line offers tips

Naperville -- The countdown to Thanksgiving is on and the experts at Butterball are ready to take your questions.

(News Release) As a new generation of Thanksgiving cooks emerge, Butterball® upgrades the Turkey Talk-Line® to provide expert holiday advice the way new cooks want it online, "on demand" and on the go.

This year, talk turkey with the experts during weekly Web chats on Butterball.com, visit a revamped Web site, check out a new mobile site with easy viewing and easy-to-find turkey preparation information or sign up to receive helpful turkey text messages throughout the holiday season. Butterball is also adding three well-known mommy bloggers to the Turkey Talk-Line to share personal tips and stories with holiday cooks.

"Over the years the Turkey Talk-Line has helped families celebrate one of life's most memorable occasions by offering bilingual assistance, answering e-mail questions and launching informative TurkeyTalk podcasts, " said Mary Clingman, director of the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line. "This holiday season, the advice Americans have trusted for years is even more accessible with turkey tips, reminders and alerts sent straight to your mobile phone, a new mobile Web site, Web chats on Butterball.com, or live expert advice at 1-800-BUTTERBALL."

One of the first national, toll-free consumer help lines, the original Turkey Talk-Line staff of six home economists fielded questions from 11,000 turkey-troubled Americans during its first season in November 1981. On Thanksgiving Day, the small group took hundreds of calls  with only a rolodex of notes and their own knowledge to help them answer the nation's questions. Today, professionally-trained home economists, registered dieticians and nutritionists assist more than 100,000 callers each year in the United States and Canada during the holiday season. With 50+ staff members, the Turkey Talk-Line has the resources to answer questions from either English- or Spanish-speaking callers, as well as respond to questions via e-mail.
