Thanksgiving is right around the corner and while it's a great holiday to get together with family and gives thanks for everything you have, it's also a good time to pig out on some seasonal grub before heading back to college for another two or three weeks of dread.
Here's a list of Thanksgiving food ranked from Best to Worst:
1. Stuffing
OK, so I don't know what your opinions of stuffing are, but mine are strong and positive. Now, I have Thanksgiving twice as my parents are divorced, and each time the stuffing is honestly my favorite part. I feel guilty because I'm not sure who makes it on either side, but shout out to that relative because it's always so good. It's never dry, it always has just the right amount of moisture and flavor. I didn't even know what was IN stuffing until I was about 17 years-old, I just knew it was my favorite part.
2. Mashed potatoes
Potatoes in any form are immediately better than any other food. You have french fries, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes, tater tots, fried potatoes, hash browns... the possibilities are endless. I haven't yet formed my opinion on whether or not having them with or without the skin on is better (because it's certainly not worse), so I'll have to get back to you on that.
3. Rolls
The rolls are honestly important to me because they're the staple of a good, fulfilling meal, and the kind is also very important. Are they sweet rolls? Hawaiian? Kaiser? Are they warm when served or room temperature? What about the size? Big or small? Do you definitely need two or would one be enough? All of these factors go into their ranking, but since there's so many different kinds, they get 3rd place.
4. Turkey
It may or may not be sacrilege to you that I put turkey so far down on a list of Thanksgiving foods, but to be honest, it's never the best part. It's just iconic, it's just THE food we have, it's nothing particularly special.
5. Cranberry anything
OK I know I said nothing on here is bad literally just one sentence ago, but this is bad. I don't know why I have such disdain for cranberry sauce? Jelly? What is it? I don't know, I just know that I hate it.
6. Any vegetables
Disgusting. The Worst, honestly.
