OMG I hear you.

I think Canada should celebrate both thanksgivings. You know, to support, uh, the, turkey, uh, industry.

Oh, bollocks. I just want more excuses to eat myself into unconsciousness.

Those of us hitched to Americans do! :P

Though on Canadian Thanksgiving I ate pasta with veg...

I'm sure there are a whole lot of Americans who would be willing to cook you two turkeys every year in exchange for getting passage up here!

Oh, if only it were so. :-)

I've always been jealous of Thanksgiving, it gives one chance to practice.

Also, any excuse to eat yourself to a standstill and then drink so much you can't sit anymore is always welcome.

What's with the turkey anyway? How did that come to be part of thanksgiving? (I prefer chicken myself - turkey seems to me to be bland chicken).

Turkey is bland chicken?! How the hell are you cooking the turkey?

I suspect "it was there". Or more traditionally, Turkeys get fucking huge and can feed loads of people.

Safely? I dunno, I just think it's a better vehicle for cranberry sauce.

No wild chickens roaming around the Massachussetts woods as far as I know. =)

It's indigenous.

And if the turkey you are eating is bland, it hasn't been prepared right. Turkey is much richer and more flavourful than chicken.

I love turkey.
