LOL! I agree about most of this. While I really don't like turkey at all,
I can "enjoy" one very freshly roasted turkey sandwich made with breast
meat. Must be made on the evening of Thanksgiving day, or no later than
lunch the next day. Must be made on good white bread with mayo and
lettuce. After that, if it's in our house, the cats get it. Now the
cornbread dressing and sweet potatoes and fresh cranberry sauce I could eat
for days and usually do!
