Nothing says Christmas Day lunch better than the centrepiece of the occasion - the bird. Waitrose sources its free-range turkeys from Lincolnshire although some also come from Wicklow in Ireland. ASDA’s turkeys travel from Norwich and Sainsbury’s most popular turkey is also reared in Norfolk. Marks & Spencer’s Simply Food whole turkey travels from Pembrokeshire."
