Why doesn’t the Turkey Hill giant cow have a fan site on Facebook???? I remember when the kids were little they couldn’t wait until the cow came around to visit at the local store. Can anyone start this group or is this something that Turkey Hill would have to start due to licensing?

My friend was lucky enough to win a ride with the Turkey Hill Cow. She had a great time traveling through the countryside, and I enjoyed the pictures!

My son-in-law used to live in Etters, PA – says he saw the cow drive by frequently! How cool! (especially since I have a cow collection)

The photo just does not do it justice. You have to see it in person to really appreciate the magnitude of it. Awesome! Great to see other people’s facial expressions when they see it for the first time. Simply makes you smile.

I believe we saw the Turkey Hill cow at the New York State Fair not too many years ago. Standing in line to receive a cup of Turkey Hill ice cream was a treat for us on a hot day at the fair. Now we get our own Turkey Hill ice cream when we grocery shop.

When I was a kid, I remember standing underneath a giant Guernsey cow in Wisconsin. Maybe you need to find that cow along with a giant Brown Swiss and Ayrshire for the TH stable. On second thought, scrap that idea. What could possibly be more fun than owning the Miss Duetto cow?

Soooo cute! That’s pretty much the reason I started to get Turkey Hill. I love cows, I have a huge collection, and then when I saw a cow, I tried it, and I love it ever since!

I’m looking forward to seing this cow once again at an all-you-can-eat ice cream event, like the ones you once held in Lancaster Square in Lancaster, PA. It was an event to die for.

When I first started to read this article I saw a giant HOLSTEIN cow staring at me and the article was talking about a 1967 JERSEY Cow. I thought–they are confused–Jersey cows are not black and white!

I saw the Turkey Hill cow in a parking lot as I was riding past on the highway. By the time I realized it was the Turkey Hill cow I was already down the road LOL !!!! Keep the history lessons coming Turkey Hill.

I saw the cow a couple of years ago at our Wegmans store in Chili, NY. I didn’t know TH was there, but went to do some shopping and there it was. This was when Wegmans began to carry TH ice cream. So glad they made that decision.

Great Story!! I have never seen the cow when visiting. Maybe you should bring Proteina to Buffalo NY for a visit!! I’m sure she would be a very welcome visitor:)

By: Debbie F

About 5 years ago the cow made an appearance at our local super market.
Thanks TH for stopping in our area(about 45 miles north of Pittsburgh,Pa)

Good idea. Everybody likes ice cream, especially Turkey Hill.

I think the kids who named the Jersey Girl Proteina were so smart, since we always think of milk products as a good source of protein!

Hey T.H. how about a series of ads with the mascot, a different devotee of T.H. ice cream in each ad with a T.H. mustache and a carton of their favorite flavor? Remember, I get the first shot! “Got Ice Cream?”

By: Vikki C.

Vikki C. — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 19:27:19 +0000

I like the idea someone else posted here of having an “ice cream mustache” on the cow, and the container open and obviously eaten from. That would be really cute!!

It would be fun to see that cow parked on my street for a day. How often does she get a “touch-up” paint job?

How far does the Turkey Hill cow travel? Does it ever leave the state of Pennsylvania? I live in Maryland and would not mind a visit from the cow especially if accompanied by gallons of Turkey Hill ice cream.

By: Carroll Good

Carroll Good — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 17:43:58 +0000

A few years ago we were driving in Lancaster County and low and behold right in front of us was the giant Turkey Hill cow. It was quite an experience and we really enjoyed seeing her “up close”. Would love to have a carton of Turkey Hill ice cream as big as the one that rides in front of her. Yum!

Very cool how this cow has earned a new lease on life thanks to Turkey Hill. We don’t appreciate our giant mascots anymore like we used to appreciate them.

Love that T.H. cow. Can’t wait to hear about her tangles with the law. Is there a way to find out her traveling schedule so that we could meet her in person?

By: Maryann

Maryann — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 14:54:14 +0000

Holy cow! Those cows are so cute. I never saw one in person but I do try to catch them on your site. Maybe next time I visit Lancaster I’ll spot one. But I still haven’t spotted Junior Mint ice cream. My daughter lives in New Jersey, I’m in NY. She told me last night that the Junior Mint ice cream is unbelievable. Mint ice cream with fudge and tiny junior mints. I told her Thanks a lot! I’ll keep looking!

Just when I was wondering what to do now that the end of July (nat’l ice cream month) is upon us, I find out that “Every Day is Sundae”! What wonderful news. Keep those great “cow” stories coming.

I would like the cow to visit our fair that we have in September in Durham, CT.
It would fit right in with the other farm animals that they have, and maybe I would get to take a picture with it.
Go Turkey Hill!

Great story about the cow. Would love to win some Turkey Hill ice cream. We were visiting in Texas acouple of weeks ago and they were bragging about their ice cream. I started bragging about Turkey Hill ice cream.

Hoping that the Giant Cow will someday visit Farmingdale, Long Island, New York. Our Village would be happy to have her as our guest.

I love the Turkey Hill carton in lieu of a milk carton.

She reminds me of the cows that once appeared in Manhattan. They were always a fun surprise to stumble upon.

I would love to see a Turkey Hill giveaway here on Long Island! Weve had Ben and Jerrys and Snapple come to our supermarkets but would love to see the cow!

Traveling East on the PA turnpike, we passed the Duetto Cow! What a sight that was! She was just riding along on her trailer, the breeze blowing in her hair,,, I think she was really enjoying the trip! Sure was a traffic stopper! lol

Can’t wait to read the next chapter about the giant cow and her brushes with law. Maybe you should have another contest to give the Turkey Hill Cow a name, that would be fun!

We saw a cow – but not just the regular cow – it was a RASPBERRY DUETTO cow – driving down the PA Turnpike one day. Had to slow down to take a picture of that. And then, of course, had to stop to buy some duetto on the way home. Love the cow!

I first discovered Turkey Hill when going to college in Lancaster – and when I came home it was a while before I found any locally. If only I knew to watch for the cow …

I’m still trying to figure out why “Turkey Hill” is a dairy products company. Shouldn’t it be: “Holstein Hill?” LOL

I’ll have to look for a sighting of this huge cow, as I live in the greater Lehigh Valley PA and I still haven’t seen her yet. What a great picture that would make!

I think it would be an even better (and more visually appealing) advertisement if the cow was pictured with an “ice cream mustache” or with its mouth IN the open carton of ice cream in front of it. That would be great and comical!

That big cow reminds me of a big farmer and cow outside a restaurant in the Ephrata area. I think his name is Amos.

Yes, the “Big Cow” that used to reside here in Elk County made quite a stir also. I still expect to see it at the spot where it sat, however, it has been gone for quite a few years. It was a tourist attraction for our rural area!

By: Rebecca S.

Rebecca S. — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 17:53:11 +0000

Oh cool! I love this kind of stuff. It reminds me of traveling from town to town looking for the “Worlds Biggest” i.e. ball of yarn, shoe house, etc.

I too would love free ice cream here in CNY from the Turkey Hill Cow.
