A Stop & Shop press release out today details the preparations they're making for the Fourth of July weekend coming soon:

Stop & Shop estimates that 220 tons of charcoal briquettes will be spirited away by barbecue-crazed shoppers for this holiday weekend, as well as 240,000 bamboo barbecue skewers. Not to be overlooked are the 3 million ears of corn about to disappear from the produce section at the supermarket chain. An estimated 125 tons of deli salad will be tamped down into those little containers, 1.8 million pounds of cherries will find their way hopefully unscathed into grocery bags on July 4th weekend. Plus, there will be a huge demand for American cheese: 250 tons of it! Anyone for a cheeseburger?

It also looks like there will be much singing around the campfire on Independence Day weekend. Stop & Shop estimates they will sell 150,000 bags of marshmallows.

Hey, speaking of stocking up, don't forget the Survival Spice™! In addition to being the ultimate dry spice rub for ribs, steaks, chops and chicken it's great mixed in with ground beef for your burgers!

Ground Beef Burgers, eh? But what about those poor misguided souls who think ground chicken & turkey burgers are good? Will Survival Spice render them somewhat edible? Or is there just nothing one can do about those meats ground and grilled?

Survival Spice™ definitely works for chicken and turkey.

Biggles, you might want to 'chuck' in a handful of beef tallow as well...

I got an email from a customer today who enjoyed a turkey burger with Survival Spice™, BTW...

No beef fat, though...

HAHAHHAHHAHAH, enjoyed a turkey burger !!! AHAHAAHHAHHA, that's really funny.

Damn man, it's a good thing I have a sense of humor.

Enjoyed a turkey burger. Put that on yer wall.

"I enjoyed a Turkey Burger!"

Hee hee.

I'd rather have a salad.

You're a sick man, Biggles.

Next you'll be saying you'd never have a tofu turkey for Thanksgiving or something wild like that...
