What food comes to mind most often when you think of Thanksgiving? Besides turkey of course, or maybe even more so than turkey and why?

Answer 1

pumpkin pie (which the Pilgrims didn't even eat)

Answer 2

I'm gonna have to say CRANBERRY SAUCE & MINCEMEAT PIE..But below will give you more options..

Many other foods are served alongside the main dish—so many that, because of the amount of food, the Thanksgiving meal is sometimes served midday or early afternoon to make time for all the eating, and preparation may begin at the crack of dawn or days before.

Traditional Thanksgiving foods are sometimes specific to the day, and although some of the foods might be seen at any semi-formal meal in the United States, the meal often has something of a ritual or traditional quality. Many Americans would say it's "incomplete" without cranberry sauce, stuffing, and gravy. Other commonly served dishes include sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, green beans or green bean casserole, peas and carrots, bread rolls, and a Waldorf salad. For dessert, various pies are often served, particularly pumpkin pie, apple pie and sweet potato pie, and pecan pie, the latter two are particularly American.

(Thanks for the question, I think we are all ready for our favorite Turkey day foods!)
I'd have to say yams covered in marshmellows, macaroni and cheese, ham, turkey and dressing, gravy,. dinner rolls, butter and cranberry sauce (home made of course). But the big kicker in my family is the greens with smoked turkey. Oh yeah, it's time to eat!
