Odom's launches turkey sausage patties
Odom’s Tennessee Pride announces the introduction of All Natural Fully Cooked Turkey Sausage Patties. The introduction of a turkey product into a line of all-pork products represents a milestone for this 65-year-old, family-run company based in Nashville, and the line offers a number of unique features. The patties are made with 100-percent turkey, are fully cooked and have qualified for the “All Natural” label. Tennessee Pride introduced its first All Natural fresh roll sausage in May. Both the new fresh roll sausage and the new fully cooked turkey patties meet these stringent USDA guidelines for the All Natural classification. The new All Natural Fully Cooked Turkey Sausage Patties package is green, which is differentiated from the company’s other fully cooked product packages.Hormel brand offers Mexican meal starters

Just BARE™, a new premium brand of all-natural chicken, has been introduced to address shoppers’ top concerns about buying, handling and consuming chicken.

Items are available for both the self-service meat case and full-service meat counter. The self-service offering features three boneless and skinless chicken items and two bone-in varieties. The transparent, recyclable plastic tray and its clear film lid give consumers a nearly 360-degree view of the chicken inside, replacing the traditional foam tray and plastic overwrap. An additional innovation of the Just BARE brand is the Family Farm Code, which helps consumers learn where and how the chicken in that package was raised.Frozen seafood entrees flood the shelves
