Gearing
up for a big grilling weekend? You can have your hot dog and eat
it too – without all the fat and calories.Foster
Farms turkey franks were just named top dog by a
panel of foodies (including chefs from high-end restaurants), all of whom
said they would buy the hotdogs for themselves.
Inducted into the San Francisco Chronicle’s Taster’s
Choice Hall of Fame, Foster Farms turkey hot dogs were described as having
“excellent flavor,” “good texture” and “nicely
spiced.” Tasters felt Foster Farms turkey franks could “double
as a classic hot dog.” And they have 50 fewer calories and 4 grams
less fat than leading all-beef hotdogs (which have 190 calories and 16
grams of fat).
Try a Foster Farms
turkey frank this weekend and let us know what you think! Our turkey franks
are widely available at local grocery stores and club stores.
Taster’s
