People travel all the time. One requirement of being human is the need to consume food daily.
Turkey is sold in the markets on a regular basis. Ground turkey is a big item right next to ground beef.

HuffPo is always whining about something or another. I doubt their figures are correct about the "carbon footprint" of turkeys, esp in regards to growing vegetables. Cranberries require a lot of water to produce...and vegetables do, as well. Any large scale farming operation HAS to use mechanized equipment, not quite carbon neutral.

Their other figures are suspect, as well. I know the "30-40%" figure of food wasted in the U.S. is always bandied about, but it doesn't have to be that way. If stores would just mark down their "wilted" or otherwise not-as-nice looking produce, they could lessen that number by half right away. Besides, do those numbers account for hog and worm farmers who do or would be glad to come by and pick up the unsalable produce? Maybe the stores could buy an acre or two of land outside the city and compost it?

For the same reasons Jap pointed out, all their environmental numbers don't concern me, but maybe they should have focused on the health effects of consuming, on average, 4500 calories in one sitting.
