Turkey. What a wonderful word, conjuring up all sorts of gustatory memories. Most of them involve family, friends, football...and a larger pants size. But, turkey day is not a day to count calories; instead we should be grateful for our full plates and fellowship.
But the day before Thanksgiving, I was shopping at a local market and was less than surprised to see tons of people with buckets of peanut oil-presumably for the deep-fried turkey. Now that's just ridiculous! Do we Americans have to deep fat fry every damn thing? First it was chicken, then Snickers bars, then Twinkies and now it's TURKEY?
I am thankful for moderation, though I don't practice it on holidays.
