Well, they don't actually inject them per se, but they do brine them for about 24hrs. Brine IS made primarily out of salt, it's main purpose being to tenderize the meat. We brined our whole turkey one thanksgiving and let me tell you, it was heavenly!

We have been doing this every year for the past 3-4 years. Normally my husband doesn't care for turkey because he thinks it is too dry but he likes the ones soaked in the brime (and spices) because it more moist.

Turkey Leg = Best. Pin. Ever. ROFL!
I was hoping for the Frozen Banana pin. I miss those. But Trader Joe's has a pretty good facsimile.
I thought that they wouldn't do the Dole Whip pin, because of trademark issues, unless they called it "pineapple whip".
I'm a happy girl today!

Oh lost dole whip.. where for art thou? I am so dissapointed that they decided Turkey Legs were better than Dole Whips.. I can't even stand to look at one of those Turkey Legs, never mind eat them.. Dole Whips though.. they look and taste good! BRING BACK VMK DOLE WHIPS!!! lol :love:

According to one of those "behind the scenes" things on the Food Network (or maybe it was the Travel Channel), they inject them with a flavored solution. It includes salt and other spices. They let them sit with this fluid in them, refrigerated of course, for a while before cooking them.

Well, until now, turkey legs were one of my favorite snacks. Hopefully I'll forget this thread before I visit WDW again. :rotfl:

A Dole Whip pin? Yummy! I'm so there! If they offer a Dole Whip pin I'll definitely be able to get DH to play VMK. We just had one Sunday, but instead of getting the usual swirl we had the pineapple floats. Weird, though, after eating it one side of my lip swelled up like a balloon. Wonder what they put in the floats?
