REYNOLDS WRAP® PUTS A SWEET TWIST ON THANKSGIVING TURKEYS THIS YEAR

Nov 11, 2020

Lake Forest, Ill. – November 11, 2020 – From the Mac & Cheese Turkey to the infamous Glitter Turkey, Reynolds has redefined the Thanksgiving turkey year after year. And with 2020 being an unusual year, there’s no better time to make things sweet this holiday and eat dessert first.

With many people finding solace in the kitchen by baking, Reynolds Wrap® is turning beloved dessert favorites into three new savory turkeys. Reynolds Wrap® is proud to announce the newest additions to our Thanksgiving tradition:

  • Reynolds Wrap® Pecan Pie Turkey brings the classic holiday pie to your turkey. Coated in a brown sugar glaze, the turkey is cooked using Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil then topped with candied pecans and dressed with mashed sweet potatoes. 
  • Reynolds Wrap® Chocolate Turkey is the ultimate chocolate lovers’ dream. Made with a chocolate-based BBQ glaze that’s sweet and savory and dressed with fresh fruit and chocolate shavings, Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Foil was the perfect option so the turkey doesn’t stick to the pan and cleanup is a breeze.
  • Reynolds Wrap® Gingerbread Turkey is a holiday staple turned savory. Featuring a molasses glaze topped with a ginger spiced dry rub and gingerbread men-inspired mashed potato piping, we recommend using Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil so all the sweet juices stay inside to cook the turkey to perfection.

While Halloween traditions like trick-or-treating may look different this fall, Hefty® wanted to give families a reason to celebrate and have fun this season. With the Hefty® Garbage Collector costume, little ones everywhere can still enjoy a day to remember by dressing up as their hero.

The limited-edition Hefty® Garbage Collector Halloween costume fits most 2–4-year-olds and comes with a reflective vest, overalls, hat, gloves and a rolling garbage bin for kids*, plus a box of Hefty® Ultra Strong™ trash bags** for parents to help with post-Halloween cleanup.
