My personal favorite is stuffing. Not particularly healthy, but better than PIE!

Pie is good for you though.
Pumpkin IS a vegetable. Vegetables are good for you.

(at least that is what my stomach tells my brain)

Except I don''t eat pumpkin pie. If I do pie it''s going to be pecan. And that is just sugar custard. Encased in a shell of fat and processed flour. With nuts on top, which have some protein, but are about half fat.

Pecan pie=not healthy AT ALL.

I don''t like almost all thanksgiving food.

Cranberry, um NO! Turkey, ok maybe a little piece of white meat. Sweet potatoes, please just puke in my mouth if you must. Stuffing, if there is no onions I could be down w/ that. Weird mixtures of jello and fruit and marshallows and shiz, hell to the fricking no! Green bean casserole, what? I eat the olives at Thanksgiving.

Hey Sunny! Have you had the chop chop from palomino cafe express? It''s delish! You should get it for lunch one day if you haven''t already!

OMG that sounds so good right now.

I''m making buttermilk pie too. MmmMmmm good.

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

Yea the only thing about Turkey day that I don''t really like is the turkey and I''m on the fence about sweet potato casserole.

Nope! Where is it? Is it a salad? I can''t do salads for lunch, unless it''s accompanied by multiple other snacks. I''m sort of a bottomless pit, you see, and salads don''t fill me up! Boo.

I want all of that too. What is it?

 

[hisdiamondgirl]

Pavochon:

Roasting a turkey for Thanksgiving as if it were lechòn (suckling pig) has been a tradition in Puerto Rico since the island became an American commonwealth and adopted the holiday. The word pavochòn is a combination of the Spanish word for turkey, pavo, and the word lechòn.
On the Spanish speaking Caribbean islands, the meat of choice for the holidays is roasted suckling pork. So it only makes sense to combine the tradition of the islands with an American tradition and serve turkey that tastes like roasted pork for Thanksgiving.

 

[Lauren8211]

I ate sweet potatoes for 4 days straight after I got my wisdom teeth pulled.

[hisdiamondgirl]

Arroz con gandules:

Any special occasion meal in Puerto Rico would not be complete without Arroz con Gandules. Afterall, Rice with Pigeon Peas is Puerto Rico's national dish. This recipe is a rice and pea dish seasoned with sofrito and diced ham.

ETA: platanos maduros are just fried sweet plantains!

Yup. Just about. As for the worst food item...probably creme brulee...unless we''re talking just one food item, in which case the worst things you could eat would either be hydrogenated oil or lard.

Just in general by the way. Obviously for specific health conditions, other things can be worse...

 

[winelover23]

I''ll have a side of lard please.

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

OMG creme brulee....YUM!!!

But honestly, you can''t tell me something like PORK RINDS is better for you than creme brulee!
