The annual Jimmy Dean Recipe Gift Exchange is returning for the season and with it, a selection of novelty items like sausage-scented wrapping paper and other sausage-themed gifts. The scented wrapping paper promises to share a sense of delight even before a gift is opened.
With the Recipe Gift Exchange, fans are invited to share a holiday recipe made using Jimmy Dean premium pork sausage in exchange one of six sausage-themed gifts.
Some of the other playful gifts that can be found in the Jimmy Dean Recipe Gift Exchange include golden earbuds called SausageBuds, Sausage-Mint Bark, Sausage Patty Sled, Glass Sausage Ornament and the Jigsausage Puzzle, which comes together to form a close-up shot of a Jimmy Dean signature-seasoned sausage.
