Salad??!!  Really?  Salad?  Well, that and brownies.  What the heck?  That's what we in Minnesota apparently have as the most popular Thanksgiving menu item.  And the sweet menu item is brownies.

How many Thanksgivings have you been to here in Minnesota that have salad and brownies as their staple menu item?  Most of the time I see it as Turkey and mashed potatoes.  And usually a plethora of desserts.  Not necessarily just brownies.  Usually a collection of pies and other assorted things.  And yes, salads are among the choices, but definitely not the first one.

And with this little tid-bit I'm going with the unpopular opinion.. I can't stand green bean casserole.  It looks like something you threw up after eating green beans and some other stuff.  I can't get past the visual.  But I know.... unpopular opinion.  I am in the minority.
