Thanksgiving is about many things. Football, the Macy’s Parade, family, giving thanks – all of these things matter little when compared to the food. Thanksgiving food is about eating yourself into a food coma until you can literally not eat another bite. Most people have some classics – a roast turkey, pumpkin pie and cranberry sauce, but if you’re looking for something more adventurous, we’ve got you covered. We’ve put together some weird and wonderful Thanksgiving recipes for you to try out!
