Why is it always Turkey on Thanksgiving?

KRL · 11-27-2003

Can't we have something else for a change. Everywhere you go turkey, turkey, turkey. And then the next day, its leftover turkey, turkey, turkey.

We sometimes have ham and one year had steaks.

but i agree KRl, turkey gets old.

I prefer lamb myself, like the old days.

My Father includes shrimp and lasagna on the T-day menu

One year I want to make a turkey shaped pizza

We're having our usual Prime Rib! I like a turkey sandwich now and then, but hate the big turkey.

We stick to Prime Rib or maybe a Honey Baked Ham. Beats turkey 9 out of ten times in my book.

Sure they can... they just don't want to give it to the weird family and friends that crawl out of the woodwork at this time of year :P

We do Turkey and Ham here....

But I love lamb..... With mint jelly.... Mmmmm Tasty!!

My dad is making his famous Crab Bisque which is best in world, and bread pudding - he used 1/5 of Jack for the sauce.

I need to go jump in the shower, I am getting hungry!!

We never have turkey on xmas.

All finns have a 20lbs ham, and shitloads of other goodies like smoked salmon, baked potatoes, herring and various mashed and sweetened veggies. It's part of finnish tradition to get drunk on xmas too, usually the man then beats wife and kids.

I always eat a LOT during xmas holidays, also gain approx 20lbs between xmas and new years.

Actually, I think that was Benjamin Franklin...

We often do a nice honeybaked ham or prime rib along with the turkey...the one year we decided to skip the turkey completely, there was nearly a white trash revolt...goddamned white trash love their turkey.....
