Thanksgiving food is overrated
Thanksgiving food is overrated
Just about every common food option for thanksgiving is mediocre. Turkey is dry and flavorless unless you drench it in salt. Cranberry sauce is awful. Not only does dressing (stuffing) look unappealing it also tastes just as bad. And pumpkin pie could be better. Casserole and mash potatoes are alright but nothing to just fond over. The only good meal is mac and cheese and that ONLY depends on who’s cooking it. The 4th of July is the superior holiday in terms of food.

Turkey is dry
Found the guy who doesn't know how to cook a turkey.
.......I mean, neither do I. But I've never had dry turkey either. One of it's defining characteristics is that it's moist.
Cranberry sauce is awful.
That depends. I've had awful cranberry sauce, and I've had good cranberry sauce. Also, I do love that jellatin blob that comes in a can.
Not only does dressing (stuffing) look unappealing it also tastes just as bad.
WHO IS PREPARING THIS FOOD FOR YOU, AND WHY ARE THEY SOOOOO BAD AT IT???
And pumpkin pie could be better.
Eh, fair enough. It really depends on how flavorful the pumpkins were. I've had bland pie before. Try adding whipped cream.
Casserole and mash potatoes are alright but nothing to just find over.
Casserole is disgusting, but thanksgiving mashed potatoes are the second best food all year (number one is turkey).
The 4th of July is the superior holiday in terms of food.
4th of july is hot dogs, cheeseburgers, and potato chips. You can have that literally ANY time of the year!
I would also throw in barbecue chicken and potato salad in with Fourth of July food. But hey even as simple as it is atleast you can for the most expect it to be actually good.
BBQ chicken is way easier to make dry than a turkey that slowly roasts all day
You can hide dry chicken with a lot of barbecue sauce. Gravy isn't as good at hiding dry turkey.
BBQ chicken IS pretty good......but I think people are downvoting the potato salad. Potato is a french fry, or a mashed, but not a salad!
