    Who are you feeding it to? And do you feel lucky?

    I saw a turkey once. A real life one just walking across the road. Or maybe it was picture. I can't remember.

    Unacceptable denial of the Armenian genocide. Turkey must admit, apologize, and make reparations.

    Are you asking if it's safe to eat? I'd continue thawing in the fridge

    I visited Istanbul five years ago.

    This is the looking toward the Blue Mosque from the second floor of the Hagia Sophia.

    When it comes to frozen meat, the safest thing is to what I do. When you come home from the store, put the meat promptly into the freezer. Then, after 2 or 3 months, place the freezer-burned, unrecognizable blob, directly into the trash. (preferably on trash pick-up day)

    I never have to worry about food safety.

    There are wild turkeys that randomly show up throughout the city. Seeing them makes me dread Thanksgiving because I always end up eating too much turkey and then get sick of it for a year.

    I think it's safe to say that turkey isn't going to make it. Don't waste money on a vet bill to try to revive it.

    All cats are turkeys.

    Wouldn't chance it, I'd recommend quitting cold turkey.

    If the turkey was fully submerged and the water was not above 40 F for more than 2 hours then it is fine. This is very unlikely! Throw it out and defrost overnight in the fridge or quick defrost under running water or the microwave next time.
