D: Keep the skin on

3) When it comes to sides...
A: Creamy and cheesy dishes don't count on the holidays
B: Starches should be bigger than a computer mouse

Wow I got most of them right but DO NOT do any of them! :) If there's one day I'm going to break all the food rules, it will be Thanksgiving! Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

Whoever took this test gets an F minus. I figure that if I avoid using gravy as a beverage, that's good enough.
