i haven't had turkey on thanksgiving for.....umm.......almost 30 years.
i do a roast in the crock pot with all the veggies. all in one place, all nice and neat. :idea:
 
My MUST HAVES for Thanksgiving are (In order)

#1 - Pumpkin Pie (with Cool Whip pronounced like Stewie. :tongue: )

#2 - Cheesy Pototes - Family recipie, many layers and cheese types, takes a while to make, delicious)

#3 and #4 are a pair Turkey with Stuffing

After that... everything is bonus or skip.
 
I get an imitation turkey loaf each year just for the hell of it; I would never bother any other time of the year. I guess I have some traditionalist tendencies left. On the other hand, if I were on my own I wouldn't bother with it, so maybe it is just an attempt to assimilate some with Carol's family.

Are you vegetarian? vegan?

I’m going to a friend’s house for Thanksgiving this year and he’s a vegetarian. So not sure if we’re having turkey or not. He’s not a moral vegetarian so it’s possible he might cook one up for other guests. I’m just bringing two vegetable dishes. Maybe we’ll be having turkey loaf (?) or tofu.

I searched Fox5 for this poll and couldn't find it. It might just be a Russian troll making an infographic to enrage Facebook users who think someone is going to take away their meat. Graphics look a bit dodgy to me.

Fox News, their father network, reported on a Harris Poll on this subject a few weeks ago. But it had these very different results. One, turkey is at the bottom with 19%. And even then it only means it is their least favorite thing; not that they will ditch it.

I am vegetarian for my own moral reasons but I don't care what other people eat. I did warn Carol that I would never cook meat for her, but I am not the kind who plays PETA tapes while she eats. :grin:

Well I believe the animals on my grandfather’s farm were happy, and that kind of farm doesn’t really exist today. I am completely against the way chickens and pigs are raised today and I avoid supporting that system as much as possible. I’ve never been a big beef eater and could live the rest of my life without it. I do like salmon and lamb. And if I have turkey tomorrow I will enjoy it (knowing nothing about the way they’re raised).

I read a biography of Gandhi at the impressionable age of 10; that had a major impact and brought changes to my life. My pacifist leanings took root immediately, but it took nearly 30 more years before I was able to go vegetarian. This New Years will make 30 years of being vegetarian. :idea:
 
My old man was a turkey connoisseur.

Mrs. T cooks everything by scratch, and it always is beyond delicious. If she sucked at it, we'd be eating curry or Vietnamese.

poll graphics look very KFC
 
The food served for Thanksgiving is nothing more than a vessel to get gravy into your body. Turkey, mashed potatoes and stuffing are the only essentials that aren't dessert.
