"According to Mark, his father [Leo Peters] drew inspiration from Whitman's Sampler Chocolates, which are presented in different shapes and designs, offering a more creative exterior. "Butter should be beautiful," says Mark, quoting Butterball's philosophy. .."
APPRECIATING the LEO PETERS 2 FAMILY...because my late grandfather Leo Peters was the first to trademark the "Butterball" name (which he later sold to the turkey company ie armour, but retained the rights to use the name for his butter factory, ie butterball farms,) and was also involved in various meat endeavors, and my memories of Thanksgiving revolve around a big meal at the "butterball mansion" I am adding a thanksgiving section to this blog!
