QotD: Tasty Thanksgiving Treat

What's your favorite Thanksgiving dish?
Submitted by Brennan.

Definitely not Jones Soda's Holiday Pack.  Tried that last year, out of misguided curiosity.  Never again.  Well, unless I get curious.  Maybe I should?  It could be that THIS year, one of the flavors will be like dying and going to heaven, right?

Anyway, my favorite turkey day dish actually comes down to a close run off between filling/stuffing and pumpkin pie.  I love stuffing.  I'm from a region of Pennsylvania where Pennsylvania Dutch foods are still popular.  I love dutch potato filling.  Even among dutch potato filling there are some drastic differences and I love them all.  Don't think I don't also like traditional bread stuffing, I do.  I could make a meal of just the various kinds of stuffing people make!

Even so, I think the winner is Pumpkin Pie.  My wife has spoiled me on this.  Fresh made crust, made with fresh pumpkin.  Can't be beat.  Don't settle for store bough crusts or canned filling, it isn't the same.  I can't reveal the secret mix of herbs and spices.... no wait, I'm thinking of KFC.  But the spices definitely make the pie.  If you're going to be in my neck of the woods, let me know.  I'll let you watch me eat a slice.

  1. "Maybe I should?"Not unless you like drinking Turkey & Gravy in carbonated liquid form.

  2. At least this year it comes with antacid flavored soda, could have used that after taste tests last year.
