Readers' Forum: Thanksgiving food is overrated
Nov. 26 is the day we will all gather together and stuff ourselves with foods such as turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, casseroles and pies. Why do we feel the need to eat the same exact meal every year? The turkey always ends up tasting dry and the stuffing ends up soggy. The foods we indulge in on this day — that most people don't even enjoy — are simply because of tradition. The meal that ends up costing hundreds of dollars and days of preparing and prepping should be a meal that everyone should savor and actually look forward to eating.
