I have not seen a pre-flavored marinated turkey in the US either, but I
bet it's a great comfort to the infrequent cook faced with making a
Thanksgiving turkey! Pre-marinated meats and poultry are showing up
here, I have not really looked but maybe they're doing whole big turkies
as well. I prefer to flavor my own and I suspect that Suey does too.
"Marinated" implies flavor beyond mere "brining" for moisture value, in
my opinion. Your mileage may vary. I don't know if the store will take
food back, but you could always freeze it for later.
Bon appetit,
Selene
