I like to mix up my combinations. Sometimes a little of everything, sometimes just taters and turkey, sometimes just cranberry and turkey. Plate A allows for no variety.
This is called the perfect bite. A little turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry, gravy and maybe a green bean on each forkful. But the plate should be organized like B.
The thing is I arrange like B so I can try different flavor pairings. I eat like A but not because I want to eat individual flavors. I'll eat each individually from time to time... Sure. But most of the time I'm like "let's try turkey, gravy, potatos, and apple Cranberry sauce"... "OK next let's try turnips, meat stuffing, corn, and orange zest Cranberry sauce".
Yeah, but I don't have tastebuds or texture sensors in that place. That's the same argument as, "well, it used to be food" while sucking on a turd. No. It's fucking wrong.
Agreed. There are some things that are better than others when mixed. Too much mixing and you lose the textures and which foods hit which parts of the mouth when.
Leftovers belong in a toasted sandwich: mayo, cranberry sauce, turkey, stuffing, gravy and chopped Brussel sprouts (which were of course fried with bacon)
I m happy that people are about this... This is the vibe Im on. If there is one or two items that are superior, I still keep them separate, to enjoy each bite. Day two things getting cozy with one another for sure.
Yes, I use B in public to seem like a normal well adjusted adult. At home, I juts mash everything together and go for it. When I eat like B I usually try and get a bit of everything on my fork anyway so its the same end result.
My wife mixes it up and puts it in a puff pastry with some Gouda and cranberry sauce to make little Thanksgiving handpies... mmm... I'm very excited for dinner today.
And even then, you have the option of blending various foods at different quantities throughout the meal. Although I’m sure option A tastes fine, it’ll be a homogeneous flavor, like a pizza that has everything and therefore nothing.
C is correct. The way my now-deceased dad did it: Build a volcano with the soft food (potatoes and/or stuffing) then fill the volcano with the other food.
i used to do this with mashed potatoes and gravy, hen i would release the volcano by scooping some side bits out and let it flow all over the rest of my meal.
The mashed potatoes volcano! I used to do it with really hot potatoes and butter. Then I'd seal it. Knowing volcanoes I'd then blow the top off and pour gravy into the melted butter lava making it convince and roll down the softly cooked and very well carved mountain sides, sticking to it and making it fun to eat.
My Grandfather was team A. His reasoning was ‘it all ends up in the same place anyway’. I am team B. My response ‘it all comes out of the same place too, but I wouldn’t eat that mixture’.
I've seen my brother eat a burrito in the method of A. His wife doesn't even like her food touching on the plate. It's good they can agree to disagree on this point.
Right? A) is basically a KFC bowl. You can buy something similar in the frozen foods section. Somewhat adjacent to a Shepard's pie. I dont think it's that weird
I’m not quite A (I only mix turkey, potatoes and stuffing), but the willingness to skip right to calling type As “sociopaths” while maintaining that all food on the plate “must not touch” is a lack of self awareness that I find very funny.
Brit here. You may be aware that we have ‘Sunday roasts’ which I guess is a simplified version (but more frequently). I love my roasted meat, roasted potatoes, steamed veg and gravy dumped into a bowl and chopped and smushed together like plate A. Then I get to eat it with a spoon and get a bit of everything with each mouthful
Right? I understand people combining foods for a single bite. I don't understand pre-mixing it like it's dog food or something. Might as well create a single Thanksgiving dish to begin with.
A, tastes great you get all the flavours in one bite....though I remember getting in ALOT of trouble for doing it when I was about ten, "thanksgiving pizza" did not go over well with grandma "I did not spend hours slaving in the kitchen for you to make your plate look like that".
A is how i eat my food. they taste good when mix together. i could browse reddit on my other hand and i don't even need to look at the food...just shovel yummy spoonful into mouth. so efficient.
Your wife is either 8 years old or 80 years old. If her age is anywhere between those ages, she's a problem. To treat a Thanksgiving dinner like that is to disrespect the entire tradition, and the person who prepared it. This has triggered me. How dare she?
B. I’m autistic and it’s taken most of my life just to be okay with having more than one thing on my plate at the same time. I’m having palpitations just looking at A.
My plate is arranged like B, however, I combo like A but in my mouth so I don't appear as a psychopath in front of my significant other's family
B in the streets. A in the teeths.
I like to mix up my combinations. Sometimes a little of everything, sometimes just taters and turkey, sometimes just cranberry and turkey. Plate A allows for no variety.
I do B and make combo bites if desired.
What kind of monster is OP’s wife?
You can mash shit together but you cant separate it again. So you should go with B then mix as and when in mouthfuls
Plate A is disgusting and bordering on a crime against humanity.
This is called the perfect bite. A little turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry, gravy and maybe a green bean on each forkful. But the plate should be organized like B.
This is the only correct answer
I was a plate A until I got married. Had to class it up a little to appear to be an adult. But when alone, always a plate A.
Same. Not sure why it looks disgusting to see it on the plate though.
The thing is I arrange like B so I can try different flavor pairings. I eat like A but not because I want to eat individual flavors. I'll eat each individually from time to time... Sure. But most of the time I'm like "let's try turkey, gravy, potatos, and apple Cranberry sauce"... "OK next let's try turnips, meat stuffing, corn, and orange zest Cranberry sauce".
A is the type of person to say " Hey, it's all going to the same place"
She'll do well when they puree her food in the nursing home.
B is the type of person to say "I won't cross my wife, but let's see who else wants to".
It is, but the special part of B is enjoying each item as intended.
I am that person, and I still wouldn’t turn my back on the monster this photo shows.
'A' could also slap a scoop on a large dinner role
This is hilarious because before I read the comments i literally just said this to my husband( I'm definitely plate A) 😂😂😂
I'm that person and I love my food like this lol
Yeah, but I don't have tastebuds or texture sensors in that place. That's the same argument as, "well, it used to be food" while sucking on a turd. No. It's fucking wrong.
Also someone who doesn't care how their food tastes/texture of food
As I respond, ‘I don’t have taste buds in my stomach.’
Plot twist: it is... (motions to toilet)
BRING ON THE PILE
I was not even aware that people mashed their whole platter up into baby food and ate it that way. So I guess I’m a b person.
B is the type of person that wouldn't violate the Geneva Convention.
B, I prefer more control over what each bite is going to consist of
Agreed. There are some things that are better than others when mixed. Too much mixing and you lose the textures and which foods hit which parts of the mouth when.
I also prefer to have control over my eat bites.
Yes! It's great for keeping things apart that don't mix well.
B, I am a Food Separatist. Separatists unite! Someone took the effort to make all those unique and intriguing tastes, so I enjoy them individually.
B for thanksgiving day but A is acceptable for leftovers the next day forward.
There's the right answer.
So glad I didn’t have to scroll too far for the real answer
This is the correct answer.
Leftovers belong in a toasted sandwich: mayo, cranberry sauce, turkey, stuffing, gravy and chopped Brussel sprouts (which were of course fried with bacon)
Okay you have won me over
Ahhhhh
I m happy that people are about this... This is the vibe Im on. If there is one or two items that are superior, I still keep them separate, to enjoy each bite. Day two things getting cozy with one another for sure.
B is true for any family gathering event, and A is when I am eating by myself
This is me lol
A people like me don't know what "leftovers" means
A is the mix going into the meat pie tomorrow.
B for Thanksgiving and yes slap A between two slices of bread for a Thanksgiving sandwich
This is what I do. I make a great casserole with the leftovers that gets rave reviews.
I start as B but it eventually ends up as A.
Yes, I use B in public to seem like a normal well adjusted adult. At home, I juts mash everything together and go for it. When I eat like B I usually try and get a bit of everything on my fork anyway so its the same end result.
This I'll accept. Nothing better than a hot open faced turkey, mashed potato, brussels sprout, stuffing, cranberry sandwich - smothered in gravy.
A is literally a badly made Bubble And Squeak.
Is bubble and squeak a thing in America? Basically A but pan-fried with gravy all over it. Real next day food
My wife mixes it up and puts it in a puff pastry with some Gouda and cranberry sauce to make little Thanksgiving handpies... mmm... I'm very excited for dinner today.
I swing both ways.
I start with B and end up with A so you are both correct
These people act like you can't have both, and then make a third plate made up of sandwiches using the dinner bun.
Same here. First plate was B, seconds was A
Interesting, I usually start with A but end up with B. I'm also served Adderall
B.
And even then, you have the option of blending various foods at different quantities throughout the meal. Although I’m sure option A tastes fine, it’ll be a homogeneous flavor, like a pizza that has everything and therefore nothing.
I have a buddy that literally eats one side at a time, it cracks me up everytime
That's insanity. You need to watch Ratatouille and learn from the rat
B, because I'm not an animal.
A is for animal.
Literally, my exact thought lol
Strictly speaking we're all animals.
We’re all just animals aren’t we
But you are, an aminal.
Right? Raised in a barn haha
I got news for you buddy...
B always turns into A as I go
A always turns into B as I go
C is correct. The way my now-deceased dad did it: Build a volcano with the soft food (potatoes and/or stuffing) then fill the volcano with the other food.
i used to do this with mashed potatoes and gravy, hen i would release the volcano by scooping some side bits out and let it flow all over the rest of my meal.
The mashed potatoes volcano! I used to do it with really hot potatoes and butter. Then I'd seal it. Knowing volcanoes I'd then blow the top off and pour gravy into the melted butter lava making it convince and roll down the softly cooked and very well carved mountain sides, sticking to it and making it fun to eat.
You somehow made the fact that he's dead sound relevant, which makes me leery of this approach.
NGL cuz- (A)is a pretty wicked sweet lookin witches brew…
Your wife is a Monster 🤣
Hey now! She's a kind and devoted woman, who lovingly regurgitated all that food for her hungry baby birds.
Agreed. Grounds for Divorce. Also, can you let your future ex know I’m clean and available?
My Grandfather was team A. His reasoning was ‘it all ends up in the same place anyway’. I am team B. My response ‘it all comes out of the same place too, but I wouldn’t eat that mixture’.
That's the best response I have heard, I'll steal that if you don't mind
I love mixing flavors! But B. The place to mix the flavors is your fork.
I agree. Keep them separate, but you can scoop a little of each item per bite, or just one or two items at once. More control over the mix this way.
Omg…she ok?!
Do you really need to ask?
“A” is a sociopath who shouldn’t be allowed to mingle with us civilized people!!
Save this photo as evidence for any pending custody or alimony hearings.
Correct answer. Red flags everywhere. Get out while you can, OP.
😂😂
Oh shit, I guess I’m a sociopath…
B because we are civilized here
Even B is too messy for me
Same. Sure, it will all be A in the stomach, as it should. Before then, Team B.
I came to the comments to find this! I find both of them to be disgusting. I cant deal with anything touching.
I agree. The food is still touching and overlapping.
I've seen my brother eat a burrito in the method of A. His wife doesn't even like her food touching on the plate. It's good they can agree to disagree on this point.
I mean, what's a casserole?
I hate that I agree with you.
Right? A) is basically a KFC bowl. You can buy something similar in the frozen foods section. Somewhat adjacent to a Shepard's pie. I dont think it's that weird
Or to a lesser degree, that stuffing. A is just stuffing's big brother.
B
What!? No Turkey? You’re both wrong
I scrolled way too far looking for this. WTF they’re eating two kinds of pig, and no turkey?
Seriously, I don’t even like thanksgiving turkey really but to not even have it on there as an option just seems wrong. I save my ham for Christmas.
B. Didn't you eat with her before getting married?
B B B B 100%B a deserves the 8th circle of hell
B all day
Ball day
They are the same, no difference to me. Give me either and I'll be happy.
I was b but upgraded to A a few decades later
I've always been for A. Combine the flavours 🤤
13th down from the top and finally an a for an answer 😃
I would say B if you took your cranberry sauce off your meat, you uncultured heathen.
If you think that's bad, how do you feel about cranberry sauce mixed with mashed potatoes?
I hope your wife is super cool cause that's hard to even look at. 😜
Wtf is wrong with A
I know right, apparently I'm a sociopath according to reddit lol
I’m A
Same. And I’m actually blown away that there aren’t more of us. This is saddening
As am I! 👋🏼
Yeah, what's the point of eating different food one at a time? Flavors should be mixed.
A team! We are efficient, wonderful people
I’m not quite A (I only mix turkey, potatoes and stuffing), but the willingness to skip right to calling type As “sociopaths” while maintaining that all food on the plate “must not touch” is a lack of self awareness that I find very funny.
B is proper looking and organized for us left-brain people. I’m guessing all A’s belongings, room, bathroom looks like her plate.
Brit here. You may be aware that we have ‘Sunday roasts’ which I guess is a simplified version (but more frequently). I love my roasted meat, roasted potatoes, steamed veg and gravy dumped into a bowl and chopped and smushed together like plate A. Then I get to eat it with a spoon and get a bit of everything with each mouthful
My wife is British and grew up doing the same exact thing, makes total sense!
A 100%
A is based
Grounds for a divorce.
Nah can't. Your wife must be a 12 on hot scale cause her crazy is a 10.
Your wife is a monster
Your wife's a psycho. Sleep with one eye open.
Your wife eats like shes in prison. She put some hot sauce on top of that shit too. Obviously b is the proper in plating.
That’s not hot sauce, it’s cranberry jam.
I'm A, wife is B
Your wife is a sociopath
Happy Thanksgiving, but OMG what the hell is your wife doing??? she might as well put it in a blender…
Your wife is a sociopath
Plate A is a psychopath I would like to do “science”with.
Neither has enough mashed potatoes
I am an A and apparently a sociopath.
Your wife is a monster.
B
Right? I understand people combining foods for a single bite. I don't understand pre-mixing it like it's dog food or something. Might as well create a single Thanksgiving dish to begin with.
Sorry to break the news to you but your wife is a psychopath. Noone eats food like her.
I do
There are dozens of us!
[удалено]
I also choose this guy's wife.
Chaos reigns. A.
Well shit, I’ve always done B, but regret not knowing about A. I will be doing A going forward.
Dude it’s a thanksgiving skillet why has this concept not crossed my mind
A, tastes great you get all the flavours in one bite....though I remember getting in ALOT of trouble for doing it when I was about ten, "thanksgiving pizza" did not go over well with grandma "I did not spend hours slaving in the kitchen for you to make your plate look like that".
B, and will combine as the fancy gets tickled
A, and if there was bread it would be a sandwich!
A. Like my Grandma used to say, “it all ends up in the same place anyhow”.
Your wife is loose cannon but you eat cranberry sauce out of a can.
A. Base layer of mashed potatoes, then stuffing, greens beans, turkey then topped with gravy all in a big delicious pile 😋
Is your wife baked? Because then it would be understandable
Don't belittle us stoners. We don't eat out a troth, just cuz were high. Get your wad of cash & magnum condoms and get to the back of the line!!!
I like A, every bite is a surprise
B!
B is the only correct answer.
B, because whoever does A is an actual monster.
Hey, I resemble that!
Is your wife a child?
Thanksgiving day is B, Leftovers is A
Has A been arrested yet?
Your wife is a monster
A all day
Plate A, it looks like delicious. Mixing food is the best way to eat it
in the end its all A :)
Ham for Thanksgiving?!?! I'd lock you both up. But, she's gonna get double time for that plate
How are there A’s during Thanksgiving? It’s not a jambalaya or a bibimbap!
B. A is clearly a psycho
B. A is psychotic behavior
...it's very progressive for teh American penal system to let you visit your wife in prison.
I need an option C where no food is touching.
Gonna come out like A anyway 🤪
B! The important question is now what beer or liquor go with it?
Bro! You have to destroy your wife and stop this madness.
Team B
B, for the love of god. A terrifies me!
A is how i eat my food. they taste good when mix together. i could browse reddit on my other hand and i don't even need to look at the food...just shovel yummy spoonful into mouth. so efficient.
Your wife is either 8 years old or 80 years old. If her age is anywhere between those ages, she's a problem. To treat a Thanksgiving dinner like that is to disrespect the entire tradition, and the person who prepared it. This has triggered me. How dare she?
What the fuck is wrong with A
A is a salad B is a salad before it was tossed.
I very rarely mix things up so definitely B here...
Which dog breed is your wife
B! I always separate my food out into their own sections on the plate. E.g. meat, vegetables and potatoes for a Roast Dinner.
Who ever made the A plate is a monster that needs to be inducted to Arkham asylum.
Your wife is a psycho
If you’re A, might as well put it in a blender and drink it you savage.
A is a psychopath
A is much, much better, 2 is for classy royal brits
B. I’m autistic and it’s taken most of my life just to be okay with having more than one thing on my plate at the same time. I’m having palpitations just looking at A.
