In light of the holiday that fast approaches I was greeted by this. A chocolate turkey. I suppose that this follows in the Easter tradition of chocolate bunnies. At Thanksgiving we eat an actual turkey for dinner, so now at Easter I imagine we should be eating an actual bunny for dinner. Then for desest and breakfast at both holidays we eat the chocolate form of the meat we have just consumed. Then, what should naturally follow is leftover bunny sandwiches the week after Easter, and some sort of hunt for... cranberries? at Thanksgiving.
As a friend recently stated "Americans can turn ANY holiday into a mass-marketing scheme", I thought there was enough evidence of this already...

Perhaps it is a safer alternative in response to the growing threat of Avian Flu?
Will that be White or Dark Chocolate?
Yum! I'd like to have a leftover turkey sandwich made from that bird!
HAHAHAHA!!! White or Dark chocolate, oh that's GENIUS! I wish I had thought of that...
I just love a holiday given to that fine American family value, Gluttony! We also have done a turkey for Easter as well. Around my house though, the menu planning starts with the most important course DESSERT! We don't even think about the meal until the pies are set!
About the chocolate turkey, what do you eat first, tail feathers or legs? Drumstick please?
Planning the Dessert first? Oh I get it, by having a Chocolate Turkey you are killing two birds with one stone......so to speak.
Us Canadians just don't plan like that.
LOL White or Dark Chocolate! Brilliant.
I imagine carving a chocolate turkey is more difficult than a real bird. I wonder how one would go about it.
Dear sweet chocolate turkey. Soon we'll have chocolate Santas available so that we might show our love for the big fat red guy by eating him too.
