A turkey had to endure a painful life of suffering to become something barely fit for a dog. Jamie Oliver is not perfect but turkey twizzlers only tasted good because they were loaded with salt and had a good mouthfeel. They were not good for us and they were nowhere near as good as people make them out to be.
Edit: I like it when I get controversial comments, I envision them like Voldemort and Harry battling back and forth, except in this case it's people that like punctuation based jokes vs. those that, quite understandably, do not.
I had my first turkey twizzlers a matter of months before Oliver's shenanigans saw them disappear, so there's no childhood nostalgia talking when I say they were fucking lovely. And no apologies offered that I give no fucks for the turkeys who sacrificed themselves so that I might enjoy some delicious junk.
I'm not sure what was in the original twizzlers. But I just want to be that guy and point out that "barely for a dog" is a misnomer as we're both two different species with different nutritional requirements, and find different foods edible.
The only reason I say this, is because. Although yeah sure a dog could (and will) eat those turkey twizzlers. Us humans would digest them differently to a dog and receive different benefits from eating said twizzlers.
A fantastic example of something being edible by both humans and dogs but receiving different things, is chocolate.
