I think turkey is kind of tasteless and it often gets over cooked which just makes it worse.  One good turkey sandwich is all I want.  I have a friend who is serving prime rib because her family prefers it.

I don't like turkey or pumpkin pie.  I eat the sides and make a dessert that I enjoy.  No big deal. It's just one meal a year.

I don't hate turkey, but it's not really my favorite. (I can't wait for Christmas dinner, at which we always have ham!)

 

 At Thanksgiving, I eat everything else...mashed potatoes, stuffing, baked yams with marshmallow, whatever veg (usually peas and carrots).

 

And, of course, dessert!  Pumpkin pie being my favorite.   Smiley Happy

I love turkey but I have relatives who don't, so they eat ham or roast beef.  I cook Turkey on Christmas and Thanksgiving but I also cook a ham on Thanksgiving and roast beef on Christmas.

Judging from the long line at Honeybaked Ham for the last three days I would say alot of people eat ham!

It's really almost better without the turkey, imo!  Smiley Happy  To me, it's the sides that make the meal!

 

  One year we attended a Thanksgiving buffet, and salmon was one of the dishes, so I had that.

 

I do enjoy ham on Christmas, though.  But, like you, I am not a big meat eater.
