        <content>I was looking at the Butterball brand turkey breasts in the freezer section of my grocery store and didn't see any butter or other dairy ingredients.  I also remember reading somewhere (and of course can't find it now) that Butterball turkeys don't actually use any butter.  Does anyone know?</content>

      <content>No, Butterball is just a brand name, there is no butter in the bird.  Frozen Butterballs have been injected with what is basically a brine mix - but of course, this being a corporate product, it's not a simple brine.  Ingredients: Water, salt, modified food starch, sodium phosphates and natural flavors.</content>
