/*White Folks Holidays*/
What's your favorite single food item available on Thanksgiving? Desserts? Sausage? Stuffing? I go more by what I don't like, so I only take the tiniest dollop of cranberry possible.

Because it tasted like radioactive waste! Liver was disgusting! My mother used to sautee onions and make bacon and put that over the liver. I never said it, but I always thought, if you put sprinkles on shit, it's still SHIT! I was so happy when I could stop eating liver.
I didn't mind liverwurst, and I like foie gras. But Liver steaks? No way. 😝

@LawrenceGerald @Dagnar @Diogenese_Shiplap No one in my family ever made me eat anything I didn't like. But mostly, I liked everything.

All of it. My family used to think I was a weird kid for not having many foods I refuse to eat. Apparently I broke their understanding of children. What drove them even more nuts is, being autistic, I'd make sure absolutely no food touched another, eat one at a time finishing each before moving on to the next (usually vegetables because I wanted them warm to keep the butter liquid).

@Dagnar @Diogenese_Shiplap I still don't like for my food to touch either. I was way worse about this when I was younger, tho.
I ate all vegetables as a kid. I still do, except for eggplant and okra. Yuk.

@Thusnelda @Dagnar @Diogenese_Shiplap I like most Thanksgiving dishes, except super-sugary sweet potato casserole. I like sweet potatoes on their own with butter and orange juice and toasted pecans.
My favorite Thanksgiving dish is something my grandmother's best friend always made--scalloped oysters. It consists of three sleeves of crushed Saltines, butter, half and half, and oysters all baked together till the top is crispy and the interior is fluffy, salty, fatty, buttery, and oyster-y. So good. It was always served in a special silver dish at the table and we all loved it.
Speaking of autistic food issues, I haven't made it in years bc husband doesn't like most seafood. My parents had that Depression-era (I was their late-life GenX child) fixation on CLEANING YOUR PLATE DAMMIT YOU LITTLE SHIT YOU WANT THE BACK OF MY HAND I'LL GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO CRY ABOUT. Any HINT of a food preference was always punished corporally. Miraculously, I learned to like most foods, including okra, but I received one of the worst beatings of my childhood over eggplant. I can eat it, but my parents are dead and I don't have to.

Hey, that's cool - if you like it, eat it and enjoy it! It's just something I really don't like and won't eat.
