Tofurky Pardoned By NFC President For National Flossing Day

NFC Newswire

Washington, DC: Nov. 26, 2015 -

In an annual tradition comparable to the presentation of deer to the Governor of VA for Thanksgiving, two native residents of Brooklyn, NY today presented the President of the National Flossing Council (NFC) with a fresh Tofurky to mark National Flossing Day.

The Brooklynites, dressed in their traditional hipster garb, recounted their hunt for the rare critter, quietly stalking it in the frozen food section of Whole Foods, until they spied their prey. After their purchase, the Tofurky was placed in a reusable bag for transport to NFC headquarters.

NFC President, Dr. Armand Lione, presented the hipsters with commemorative packets of dental floss before pardoning the Tofurky and returning it to its native habitat, a refrigerator.

To close the event, the hipsters & Dr. Lione toasted the Tofurky ceremony by sharing a 40 oz bottle of Pabst, the beer that has been specifically paired with Tofurky by Brooklyn beer artisans.
