Butterball CEO: Larger Turkeys In Demand This Year

  • Families are going bigger on their Thanksgiving turkeys this year as Americans return to the way they celebrated pre-pandemic, according to Butterball CEO Jay Jandrain.
  • “We expect bigger turkeys this year because we are going to have bigger groups,” Jandrain said during an interview on “The Claman Countdown.” “People are travelling more this year. They are able to get back to celebrating with their friends and family that maybe they didn’t do the last couple of years.”
  • “When you can buy a turkey for about a dollar per pound, compare that to any other protein, and it’s really hard to come up with a solution that is going to be better than that from an economic standpoint,” added the exec.
