I never ate his sausage but I will always remember his sausage...

RICHMOND, Va. —
Jimmy Dean, a country music legend for his smash hit about a workingman hero, "Big Bad John," and an entrepreneur known for his sausage brand, has died. He was 81.
His wife, Donna Meade Dean, says her husband died at 7:54 p.m. Sunday at their Henrico County, Va., home, south of Richmond.
She tells The Associated Press that he had some health problems but was still functioning well, so his death came as a shock.
Born in 1928, Dean was raised in poverty in Plainview, Texas, and dropped out of high school after the ninth grade. But he went on to a successful entertainment career in the '50s and '60s.
In 1969, Dean went into the sausage business, starting the Jimmy Dean Meat Co. He sold the company to Sara Lee Corp. in 1984.

See an old 1989 Jimmy Dean commercial starring Jimmy Dean at 2:00 into this video..

I've recently realized that TV in the 80s was almost 100% white... Not a black face in any of the commercials nor any of the sitcoms...
Check out some 1984 commercials : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUptNeDoJno

I don't eat that stuff but I have to admit it smells wonderful. I suspect J. Dean was a good man. Who knows?
(It's crazy how on like paper towel commercials there's a Hispanic wife with a negro husband wearing doctor scrubs, one white kid, and like two black children that are supposed to represent the new face of America. Even gun products with the picture of a criminal on their package--shown for shock affect to make you realize you need their gun products because of criminals--always has him as a real light skinned, pale white!!! lol)

He had an image that he was gentle and nice... I watched that old 1989 commercial and was reminded of that..

What do you mean you'll always remember his sausage?
This can't be coming from you.

Just read about. I thought it was a different person from the entertainer.
Looks like he's from a better time in America.
Too bad.

What I mean is that when I was growing up in New England in the 70s-80s I watched a lot of Jimmy Dean sausage TV commercials on TV. His commercials were memorable for his soft-spoken nature and his insistence that his sausages were the best in the world. I never tried pork sausages as even when I was young my mother did not feed us any pork...

HE SEEMED LIKE A GOOD MAN

Man I love breakfast sausages.
I'm telling you, you guys need to work out something with God after the messiah comes to allow you to eat pork and such. I'll throw some side ribs on for you. =) jk

I certainly don't suggest anyone eat pork sausage. The purpose of my post was to point out that things were much different in the 80s-90s, especially the advertising.
When I heard of Jimmy Deans passing I immediately remembered the advertisements he made in the 80s which I watched as a young man...
I did not say that sausage was good, as a matter of fact I said:
I never ate his sausage but I will always remember his sausage...
I did never eat any pork sausage in my life... But the fact that it was advertised so much in those days I remember the advertisements..

They might have kosher McDonalds in Israel. I heard about that somewhere. I think it would still be very unhealthy though.

I would not look forward to eating at McDondalds in Israel. I have heard that there are Kosher ones, but even so... I like the taste of McDonalds but I haven't eaten it in years.

Not only that eating at McDonalds' is unhealthy and sometimes forbbiden because of Kashrut reasons,
most of the profits McDonalds is making in Israel goes to the Gazan Nazis.
