Corn

Corn comes first in this article as the last place winner for foods that transport gravy to where it belongs- my body. It has no structure and as delicious as it is when swimming in gravy, it's ineffective at best.

Green Bean Casserole

The center of any white peoples' holiday gathering, green bean casserole provides a bit more of the necessary structure to effectively get gravy to the goal. Delicious but still not super useful.

Macaroni and Cheese 

Again, delicious with or without gravy. Packs a little more of a punch in terms of viscosity and does well handling the gravy. But we can do better.

Turkey

The snide, domineering main attraction of Thanksgiving. But what do you do when Grandma is getting older and forgot to take it out until a few hours too late? You slather that dry bird in GRAVY. Moist or not, why bother consuming turkey without a splash of that sweet, sweet gravy.

Rolls

Okay yes BREAD. The only problem with bread is once you dip it in that gravy goodness and go to town, it's filling. If you're full of bread, there's less room for gravy.

Mashed Potatoes

The old, tried, and true of gravy transit. It does the job and it does it damn well. Have you ever met a potato that let you down? Me either.

Stuffing

The number one, unsung hero of the holidays. I'm not even totally sure what all goes into stuffing, I just know it's delicious. But once you get that gravy on it...unstoppable.
