"We want to have it in supermarkets in the New Year," president of the seven-year-old association, Angela Bardowell, told journalists following its annual general meeting at the Golf View Hotel on Thursday.
Bardowell said the JPFA's optimism had been boosted by "rave reviews" for test samples of the product at the annual Jack Daniels (whiskey) promotion in May. There had also been very positive responses to other test sampling, she said.
Bardowell said her association was hopeful that in addition to supermarkets, leading patty manufacturers and distributors/retailers would also be willing to take pork patties "on board".
The plan comes against concerns that cultural/religious considerations could prove a hindrance. Rastafarians as well as Seventh-day Adventists and other 'Sabbath keepers' of the Christian faith object to the consumption of pork.
"A lot of the reasons given by persons for not producing (and selling) pork patties is that consumers don't want (traditional patties) to mix with the pork," Bardowell acknowledged
I love my beef patties!! Chicken and veggie patties I have if there's no other option.
For the beef patty lovers how do you feel about pork patties?
If you try it and like it, would you switch to pork patties?
. It's not a big secret that most of those Sabbath observers acknowledge that pork is no longer a disease infected animal and that they refrain out of respect for the generations before them. (take that with a grain of salt, I get irked at people who preach standards that they don't uphold)
I was talking about Jenny's "special" cake!
