Stove Top Stuffing Pants – Yes, It’s a Thing
The Thanksgiving holiday brings many things: the crisp fall air, early morning turkey trots, delicious food and of course, those uncomfortable conversations with extended family members that you haven’t seen in a while. To bring comfort to every facet of Thanksgiving this year, including your conversations and waistband, Stove Top, a Kraft Heinz Company brand, is excited to bring back Stuffing Pants to celebrate its 50th anniversary—because everyone knows when it comes to Thanksgiving, the stretchier, the better.
Stove Top Stuffing Pants are available on Amazon.com in a variety of sizes for a limited time only, while supplies last. The new and improved jogger-style pants feature:
- 360 degree stuffin’-stretch technology
- An extra wide, waistband so you don’t feel guilty about going back for seconds (or even thirds)
- An extra-large cargo pocket in case you can’t resist sneaking some stuffing for later
- Soft, Stove Top red fabric so you can enjoy Thanksgiving in comfort and style
“After listening to our fans and hearing the demand to bring comfort to the Thanksgiving dinner table, we are thrilled to bring back our Stuffing Pants this year with a new modern twist,” said Martina Davis, associate director, Marketing at Kraft Heinz. “We understand that one of the most important parts of holiday dinners is comfort and convenience, so we are excited to launch our Stuffing Pants to make Thanksgiving fun and allow you to enjoy life’s special moments with friends and family.”

NaturalShrimp to Launch Online Ordering Home Delivery Program
NaturalShrimp, Inc., a biotechnology aquaculture company that has developed and patented the first shrimp-focused commercially operational recirculating aquaculture system, will attend the 10th Anniversary World Food Championships Nov. 9-13 in Dallas.
The World Food Championships is the largest competition in food sport, where culinary competitors of previous events convene for a chance at winning the ultimate food crown and a share of hundreds of thousands of dollars in prize money. The 2021 World Food Championships attracted more than 1,500 cooks from 42 states and six countries, with 17,000 foodies watching in person.
Director of e-commerce Chef Douwe Iedema will be judging on two panels, SEAFOOD: Master Judge in Opening Round, Nov. 10, at 12:30 p.m. and SEAFOOD: Finals Panel, Nov. 12 at 1:30 p.m.
“Nowhere is the spirit of culinary passion, product integration and foodie engagement more alive than at the World Food Championships, and I am honored to be a judge in the Seafood category this year,” said Iedema. “I am also excited to highlight our fresh, land-based gourmet-grade shrimp to attendees.
“The event coincides with the upcoming launch of our online ordering home delivery program, which will include fresh harvested heads-on shrimp and my long-awaited shrimp cocktail sauce. Recipe books and instructional videos for the home cook will be available as well. I look forward to sampling some amazing seafood dishes from the contestants and promoting how NaturalShrimp’s sustainable shrimp can be a fresh addition to home chef’s meals.”
NaturalShrimp is a publicly traded aquaculture company, headquartered in Dallas, with production facilities located near San Antonio and Webster City, Iowa. The company has developed the first commercially viable system for growing shrimp in enclosed, salt-water systems, using patented technology to produce fresh, naturally grown shrimp, without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals. NaturalShrimp systems can be located anywhere in the world to produce gourmet-grade Pacific white shrimp.
