Convenient freezer-to-oven turkey packaging

Jennie-O Foods, Willmar, MN, is marketing its new “Oven Ready” fresh-frozen turkey products in a freezer-to-oven, easy-open bag system developed by Curwood, Inc.

Pw 11163 Jenni O

Able to go from freezer to oven without thawing or preparation, the pre-seasoned products (Home-Style & Butter or Garlic & Herb) are packaged to provide ultimate consumer convenience and food safety.

The distribution-tough, rupture-resistant outer bag supports heavy turkey products. Currently, the bags are accommodating product weights from 17-19 lbs, but larger birds could be handled. The high-gloss bag is made of a 5.7-mil finished structure consisting of a reverse-printed 48-gauge oriented polyester laminated to a 4.5-mil white linear low-density polyethylene coex sealant. The side-gusseted, stand-up bag with 8-color graphics/printing on front and back panels and in the gussets is designed to be displayed in an upright position for enhanced shelf visibility. A comfortable built-in carrying handle and Curwood’s IntegraScore® easy-open technology (no utensils required) complete the convenient outer bag. The inner cook-in bag material and supplier information is proprietary.
