Additionally, Hickory Farms is a strong supporter of the U.S. Armed Forces serving across the globe and offers free shipping ALL YEAR LONG on select products to military addresses to ensure that families can send loved ones delicious food gifts and a taste of home throughout the year.
Hickory Farms A Cherished Holiday Tradition
Was Hickory Farms a part of your holiday traditions growing up? I can always recall having Hickory Farms mouthwatering sausages and cheeses in our home throughout the holiday season while I was a kid. My parents use to bring us children to the nearby mall and we would enjoy visiting the Hickory Farms store to taste the different goodies that had been set out for the shoppers. My personal favorite items to sample were the sesame sticks and cheese balls! We would ALWAYS purchase a cheese ball, beef summer sausage stick, and sesame sticks to take home with us. My mom would put together a platter with all the Hickory Farms treats and serve them to us on the evening we would decorate the tree. LOVED IT! Now, I have carried on the tradition and do the exact same with my children.
The neat thing about Hickory Farms is the sausage tastes precisely the same now as it did a long time ago when I was a child. I don’t believe that the company has ever altered the recipe ingredients? On the other hand, I noticed I can’t seem to find the sesame sticks they use to sell during my childhood and assume they must have discontinued them. I’m hoping they sooner or later bring that product back again, since it was my favorite item to nibble on during the holidays.
I Was Sent The Home for the Holidays Gift Box!
Hickory Farms, via Mom Central, sent my family a beautiful Home for the Holidays Gift Box loaded with goodies including:
-Sesame, Caraway & Sea Salt Crackers 1.5 oz.
-Parmesan Herb Blend 4 oz
-Olive Oil & Rosemary Crackers 1.5oz
-Cheddar Havarti Blend 7 oz
-2 Signature Beef Summer Sausage 10 oz
-Sweet Hot Mustard 2.5 oz.
-Italian Recipe Beef Summer Sausage 10 oz.
-Honey & Pineapple Mustard 2.5 oz
-Farmhouse Cheddar 8 oz
As much as I wanted to dig into all the scrumptious goodies, I’m saving the items to serve to my family on the night we decorate the Christmas tree. Knowing what they already taste like, my favorite way to prepare the items is to slice the summer sausage extremely thin and serve it with a dash of hot mustard and cheese on a Olive Oil & Rosemary Cracker! Yummy, it’s making my mouth water just thinking about it!
