Lucky pigs indeed. So they get a daily ration of ice cream.

Hi everyone, I know those little pigs love the ice cream….now if they would send some my way….I would love that too. I did not think you throw the ice cream away…

There is no such word as left over ice cream at our house espcially if it is TH. I am still working on Ginger Snap it is so good I try to make it last. It is so good that everthing on your farm is used in one way or another. Looking forward to more interesting stories from you all.

I may have said this before but it needs to be said again, it is so good to see a company use their products wisely, like sending your leftovers to the pig farm. in Philly we used to sort or garbage and pig farmers used to collect the food wastes, but it is no longer a practice here. thanks for using your resoursed wisely.

How I wish all companies would be like Turkey Hill and find some useful end to discarded products. You certainly have done your homework in this area.

What about me? When it comes to Turkey Hill Ice Cream, I’m an ever-hungry pig!

Just give me one of those pigs. Its meat has to be sweeter than those pigs which are just fed slop.

If you ever need an ice cream tester, I would like to officially apply for the job. Yes, I am willing to relocate from NY!

Glad to hear nothing is wasted, pigs turn it into milk to feed their baby piggies.

NO wonder the piggies by your ice cream factory have smiles on their faces LOL

I just read Emilia’s post & was thinking the same thing. We’ve gone on the Herr’s factory tour a couple of times & I love the fact that they recycle the leftovers. Leave it to Turkey Hill & Herrs’ to produce
great products and to recycle too!

Now I know what “pig out” means, a great array of all kinds of food and desserts…

Glad to hear it is put to good use, and it helps the farmers with the cost of feed.

I am happy to see it go to a good use. Hubby volunteers at the local food pantry and they had a pig farmer come every Friday to pick up more than a day old bake goods which would be rocks on Monday. It seems the only thing that can eat stale bagels are the pigs and they also didn’t mind pies with a drop of mold. the farmer is now retired so they now go into the dumpster.

Lucky pigs!

I think that’s unfair! The Ice Cream should go back to the cows that made the main ingredient, and let them “pig out”.

I envy the lucky pigs that get to eat Turkey Hill everyday!

Or would you rather be a pig?

I am so glad the tested TH is recycled to be pig feed. The amount of food wasted in restaurants and supermarkets is shameful with all the hunger in the world, including our own country.

Just want to say “thank you” for the Turkey Hill ice cream samples you gave out at the PA State Farm Show! It’s great to see you supporting the dairy industry in PA ! My family and I really enjoyed the treat and look forward to it! (And the coupons are helpful too that were available, already had a calendar from Turkey Hill, thank you!

I was hoping you would say that. We went to the Herr’s factory and they use their leftover potato chips and other food waste to feed their Angus Steer. What a great idea!

Of all the products that Turkey Hill produces, what is it’s most popular one and flavor? I know it’s not that intelligent question, but one I’ve been pondering for awhile.

It’s a pig’s life. Oh to be one of those pigs!
