Incredible Thanksgving Wealthy Gap between Conventional and Heritage Turkey

Americans  are preparing for thanksgiving come Thursday and ovet 235 million turkeys are eaten every year with about 46 million of them on Thanksgiving.

 I stumbled on this write differencing between Conventional and Heritage Fowl for thanksgiving. According to Bloomberg  Conventional  fowl  are factory farm behemoths bred for maximum white meat and minimum cost. while Heritage  fowls will  grace your table with a purebred heritage turkey. These free-range birds, which are growing in popularity among chefs, well-heeled home cooks, and the farm-to-table crowd, can cost six times as much as a conventional turkey.

Below is a chart of detailed explanation of difference by Bloomberg
