My BFFs ex MIL – boiled her turkey one year. Yup, you read it right. BOILED. OMG. So rubber turkey is the highlight of a horrible Thanksgiving meal:
- Boiled turkey (think white rubber and you’re on the right track)
- canned gravy (extra salt added)
- instant mashed potatoes (made with water only – no milk or margarine)
- one box of frozen green beans, cooked to death
- store brand cranberry sauce
- boxed dressing (made with water – not broth or margarine)
- store brand white sandwich bread (slightly stale as it was past the date)
- margarine from a large plastic tub
- canned sweet potatoes (nothing extra, just dumped into a bowl)
- canned corn (extra salt on this as well)
- wine in a huge gallon jug, with screw off cap (perhaps Blue Nun or Boone’s Farm?)
- not sure what my version of a “horrible” dessert would be.. I mean dried up pumpkin pie, or any type of dried up pie.. but there has to be something worse than that, right? C’mon, give your .02…
Here is a vision of what my worst Turkey Day meal would look like: (also *worst* because eating ANY meal off a paper plate is horrible to me. I’m not being rude – just sayin’. I truly HATE to eat anything (even a picnic) off of a paper plate. That’s just me. My DH doesn’t mind a bit.. 😉 )
Note the congealed “gravy”…
