Pumpkin is perfectly ok one time per year- on Thanksgiving. And even then, it's the pie that I eat after my leftover meal on Friday. Usually, I'll reserve Thursday for mincemeat or apple pie.

Cranberry.... meh. I don't hate it or nothin'. But it takes up space on my plate where other, better-tasting stuff could go.

Can sometimes tolerate a piece of pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving but I generally stay clear. Canned cranberry sauce is just downright nasty.

There's no almost with me. Michael, get an ignore function so I don't have to read Doc's posts anymore.

One of the best things ever is a turkey sandwich with stuffing and cranberry sauce. Delicious.

I might cry thinking of all the things I'm going to eat in the next two days. I'm that happy.

Yeah, this coupled with his love for McRibs makes me not want to be friends with Mike anymore.
Leave the McRib out of this. Much like Barry Bonds, it's misunderstood and is a frequent target of unnecessary hate. While it may have come across it's power in an unnatural manner, it's status as one of the greatest sandwiches of all-time isn't really debatable. You a Big Mac fan?

Cranberry sauce can't even be trusted to hold it's position on the plate. Only gravy should have free will to wander the plate and bump into other foods. Who wants cranberrry sauce rubbing shoulders with the Thanksgiving Titans, mashed potatoes and <insert odd family recipe here> casserole? Blech...it's just nasty.

Pumpkin pie=pilgrim poop

VIVA LA BROCCOLI-RICE CASSEROLE!!! VIVA LA TURKEY!!!

QFT. That's another reason I skip the cranberry on Thanksgiving.

Best Friday-after meal ever? Turkey sandwich (dark meat), a little mayo, and sweet pickles.

If you want to get really ballsy, dump the mayo and pickles and replace with a little stuffing and gravy.
