Austin, Minn.
The donation of 165,000 Hormel®Compleats® microwave meals will go to Feeding America food banks in Oklahoma City and its surrounding suburbs.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with all who were affected by this devastating tornado,” said Julie H. Craven, vice president of corporate communications at Hormel Foods. “We hope to provide a helpful way to feed the many in need as the difficult process of rebuilding begins.”
Hormel®Compleats® microwave meals are 10-ounce satisfying meals that feature quality chicken, beef or turkey as well as flavorful vegetables and pasta, potatoes or rice. Convenient for relief efforts, they are a source of protein, do not need to be frozen or refrigerated and can be microwaved in the tray in 60 seconds. Additionally, these meals are fully cooked and can be eaten straight from the package for those without access to electricity.
