It tastes expensive!
How many vegetables do people typically serve on Thanksgiving? Including salad, potatoes, yams, green bean casserole, cranberries, and whatever else, it seems like a lot. |

I don't get the "Expensive? Indeed, no!" part ... Why can't they make up their mind?

Do the meals come with the pat of butter substance on the potatoes and peas?

Foil packaging???? They must have ruined a lot of microwaves back then.

I don't think they had microwaves back then. It's the pilgrim hat that tips me off.

Yam is an American colloquialism for sweet potato. Real yams are some crazy African vegetable that nobody eats.

There's also celery and onion in the stuffing. And it's stuffing. Only my dead grandmother could get away with calling it dressing. |

Fresh pumpkin sucks for pies. Canned is the only way to go.

Why is there even a debate on canned pumpkins?
It's the OBVIOUS choice. |
