November 17th, 2008 - Thanksgiving


In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday, I'm rating the traditional food 1 to 10. I'm an extremely picky eater, so my eating habits are a bit unconventional.

10. Yams. sick.

9. Cranberry sauce. It is a strong belief of mine that all berry's should be left in-tacked. No jams. No sauces. Especially when it comes from a can.

8. Turkey. I hate turkey. Come to think of it I'm not a fan of eating any type of bird. Chicken, turkey, duck, and pheasant are all unappetizing. It's to dry and only once in a great while does it taste even remotely good.

7. Gravy. Gravy's only one step up from turkey because I only eat the two together and I only do this when I have to. Just like turkey, gravy can be made very well or it can turn out like a totally disaster.

6. Rolls. Does this really need to be explained? Who doesn't like rolls?

5. Vegetables. Corn, green beans, carrots, or squash, whatever tickles your fantasy, they're all good.

4. Pecan pie. This was my Thanksgiving desert of choice until I warmed up to #3.

3. Pumpkin pie. The one task my dad has on Thanksgiving is to make the pies. He's the "pie man." Since I was the oldest out of my sisters I always helped him out. I always helped him but I never actually ate what we made. It looked gross. After 21 years of having a piece set in front of me by him I finally started to like it. Now, I'm obsessed.

2. Stuffing. The only downside to this food is that it was in #8.

1. Mashed potatoes. 100% hands down this is my favorite Thanksgiving food. I love carbs, so its no surprise that this is my top choice. I like mine with a dollop of butter and some salt and pepper. Mashed is my favorite style of potato, proceeding baked and French fried.

I like the post, it's creative.

Turkey is amazing, you are missing out. I've had Thanksgiving at my house for as long as I can remember and there's nothing better than waking up in the morning to that smell of turkey. It tastes good, is lean and is a good source of protein.

Cranberry sauce is also real good, but is like some of the other foods you mentioned in that it can either turn out real well or not so well.

I like pecan pie over pumpkin pie, I think it tastes better. I've never really liked pumpkin, and prob never will.

Mashed potatoes are good, but it's all about the turkey on Thanksgiving.

Turkey is #1.
