Members’ Favorite Thanksgiving Dishes

In the spirit of the holidays, our Sentiment Survey special question asked AAII members what their favorite thing is to eat on Thanksgiving. Unsurprisingly, leading the poll on the best Thanksgiving dish was turkey, with 35% of the respondents naming it as their favorite. Following close behind however was toppings, with 27% of respondents naming stuffing, cranberry sauce or gravy as their favorite part of the meal. Other respondents from this survey state that their favorite thing to eat is side dishes (17%) and desserts (15%). In the dessert category, pie (specifically pumpkin) is named most frequently. Finally, 5% of respondents fall into the “other” category; honorable mentions include: ham, duck and oysters.

Here is a sampling of the responses:

• “Candied yams, even though my blood sugar doesn’t like them.”
• “Beer.”
• “Dressing and lots of gravy, with a side mountain of buttered mashed potatoes, also flooded in gravy!”
• “Turkey … duh!”
• “Pie … lots of pie.”
