You might find it a little more tricky getting a turkey this year! It’s a perfect storm of Thanksgiving maham! The avian flu has been making it very hard to keep up with supply demands. This has caused many Canadian farmers to lose many healthy turkeys due to the illness. This has caused a huge shortage of the birds so if you haven’t gotten your turkey for Thanksgiving yet you might want to think about getting it or possibly trying these other options!

Thanksgiving Meal Alternatives

Ham
Roast Beef
Lobster or other seafood
Salmon
Pasta

Have you had trouble getting a turkey for your big meal? Do you make something else?
