Tofurky "Wishbone" Discovered; Draw the Tofurky Contest Held
Turtle Island Foods has announced the discovery of a "wishbone" in their Tofurky Vegetarian Roast commonly sold at natural foods stores during the Thanksgiving and Christmas season.

"It's simply amazing," commented Turtle Island CEO Seth Tibbott. "While we have never actually seen a Tofurky in the wilds, we did sell over 50,000 roasts last year and had no idea until now that Tofurkys even had anything resembling a bone!"

These "wishstix," as the company calls them, are actually 100% vegan (like the rest of the Tofurky Feast), have four ends, and are entirely edible. Made from what the company is calling "Tofurky Jerky," wishstix will be included in every one of the Vegetarian feasts the company sells this year.

Tofurky Vegetarian Feast was first marketed in 1995 and includes: one 26-ounce stuffed Tofu Roast, four Tempeh Drummettes, 14-ounce Tofurky "giblet" Gravy and this year, one Wishstix.

Turtle Island Foods will be sponsoring a "Draw the Tofurky" contest this year. Entries are now being accepted from people who think they know what a Tofurky looks like in the wild. The grand prize winner will receive an all expenses paid trip for two to the Farm Sanctuary Bed and Breakfast facility in Watkins Glen, NY.
