I thought those 12oz were single serving. I just put one on a bun.

What, no hot link for the man who made the hot link?

I read where the company was sold to Sara Lee Foods years ago. Maybe it was the bastardization of the product that drove him to his grave.
Sample:

Our kids love those ^^^

Wait a minute, this guys got three 200+ lb. people, an overweight wife and a chubby but active 13 year old girl all under one roof, and he thinks a change of 4 oz. of sausage is going to alter his life?

Oy.

Some people really are a waste of food.

"Hi, this is Sara from Sara-Lee Foods, the parent company of Jimmy Dean Sausages, we understand your concerns and will be sending coupons for a new product line of "Sara-Lee Salads"

That is the only response that "Phut Busterd" should get !!

Diamonds Are Forever is my favorite Connery-Bond movie

Wow. Chocolate chip pancakes wrapped around a sausage link. That's, um, that's something.

FWIW, in the 60's, Jimmy Dean worked with medical researchers to raise very clean pigs - for skin grafts.

Music, hog farming, food, medicine, James Bond movies ... a true Renaissance man!

Oh, and a West Texas native.

The current Jimmy Dean does bring us these good commercials.

Here he is with Buck Owens, singing the happiest song about infidelity ever written.

Rode by his house on the weekends for years. He lived off of Route 5 In Varina, VA. A pretty happy dude the most times I ran into him. If you went by his place on the river while in a boat, and he was outside, he'd wave back.

Yeah, his place is just up Osborne Turnpike from my place. I'd like to say we used to hang out, Jimmy and I, but I never did meet the man. Rest in peace.

Rest In Peace, Willard White.

BAJA???? I don't have anything in Baja!

My second favorite thing by Jimmy Dean

A couple of dozen eggs. For five people. I don't think you need any sausage to go with that. And if you can't find better sausage than Jimmy Dean, you ain't from The South. Hell I make better sausage than Jimmy Dean.

Striplings Extra Hot in Cordele, GA.

Mention Jimmy Dean in that store and they laugh their butts off.

What? Jimmy Dean died? This is the wurst news ever, I never sausage a tragedy.

Jimmy Dean's products never were very good. Of course, that's because I compare them to the fresh made country stuff my grandmother gets out near her place in Batesburg. I suppose his stuff was OK for them city folk.

If you ate one serving of everything with his name on it you'd need a Big John.

That's it, close this thread. We have a winner.
