Don’t be alarmed if the surface of your fresh turkey seems icy. Fresh turkeys are kept just below freezing to maintain a crust of ice on the surface, which easily melts when stored in your refrigerator.

If thawing your bird in the fridge, plan for 1 day of thawing for every 4 pounds of turkey, so a 12- to 16-pound bird will take 3–4 days to thaw. Once the turkey is thawed, it’s safe to keep in the fridge for another 1–2 days. Err on the side of starting early to ensure a ready-to-cook bird on the day of your celebration.

Short on time? You can thaw your turkey by submerging it in cold water. Plan for 30 minutes per pound. Make sure the turkey is in a leak-proof, sealed plastic bag (you don’t want a waterlogged bird) then submerge the wrapped bird in cold tap water. Change the water every 30 minutes. The turkey should be cooked immediately after it’s thawed. With this method, a 12- to 16-pound bird should be ready to cook in 6–8 hours.

Turkey leftovers generally should be good for 3–4 days in the fridge or for 3–6 months in the freezer.

Keep hot foods between 140°F and 165°F until serving time. Cold food should be held at 40°F or colder.

Make sure there are plenty of serving utensils to help your guests serve themselves without mixing foods from different dishes.

The absolute maximum time for leaving prepared foods at room temperature is 2 hours—including time for preparation, serving and eating. Discard any perishable foods left at room temperature longer than 2 hours.

To maintain deep chill (35°F) store turkeys in the coldest spot in fridge, turned down as low as possible, or store in a secondary fridge or freezer.

In order to distribute traffic more evenly, we have limited the number of pickup windows in each time slot.

To ensure the safety of our customers, we are offering multiple pickup stations in stores for orders placed on shop.wfm.com . Some stores offer curbside pickup on prepaid orders. Detailed information on your store's pickup process will be included in your order reminder email 72 hours prior to your scheduled pickup.

Product Information

Allergens present in the ingredients of a 365 Everyday Value or Whole Foods Market brand product will be called out by their common or usual name on the label, as required by law. This includes calling out any common allergens that may be present in natural flavors or spices. We collect information from our vendors about those allergens present in the facility that have been identified and listed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA).

If an ingredient has not been designated as a common allergen by the FDA or CFIA, suppliers of our 365 Everyday Value or Whole Foods Market brand products are not required to let us know whether it is present in the facility. We recommend reviewing the product label for the most accurate information and speaking to your doctor about whether a product is appropriate for you or your family member.

If you have a question about offerings other than a 365 Everyday Value or Whole Foods Market brand product, please contact the manufacturer of the product directly. Due to the possibility of cross contact associated with bulk products (which are products sold in bins by the pound), prepared foods and baked goods, salad bars, hot bars and in-store eating venues, people with food-ingredient allergies should not consume these products.

You can check up-to-date information regarding class 1 recalls that affect Whole Foods Market stores in the U.S. For any other recall information, we recommend checking foodsafety.gov , which provides food safety and food recall information from both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).

Go to products.wholefoodsmarket.com to learn about our food and beverage products. You'll find details like in-store prices, availability, nutrition facts, ingredients and more. You can also filter by dietary preferences (i.e., if it's gluten free, low sodium, etc.).

You can visit the categories page to see what’s available. For more information about our products, you can contact our Customer Care team at .

The information in our online catalog is for U.S. stores only. That said, you can still take a look at it if you’re outside the U.S to get an idea of what we sell in our stores. It just might not be as useful.

This means we sell this product, and you can probably find it in the store you selected. Unfortunately, there’s no guarantee it’s in stock on the particular day you visit your local store.

There is no governmentally regulated definition for "natural" when it comes to personal care products. Therefore, for fragrance in our own branded personal care products, we are using the definition and standard for "natural raw materials" from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), an international non-governmental standard-setting organization.

According to ISO 9235, a "natural raw material" is "of vegetal, animal or microbiological origin, as such, obtained by physical, enzymatic or microbiological processes, or obtained by traditional preparation processes (e.g. extraction, distillation, heating, torrefaction, fermentation)."

Common Questions
