Thanksgiving is a great holiday for one reason: food.  It’s the one day of the year that a person can eat as much as they want (or can).  It also helps that the food is some of the best food ever. This is a list of the best Thanksgiving foods:

10. Cranberry Sauce: This red jelly-like sauce is a great side, but there are a lot of people that would prefer to leave it off their plate, so it lands in the number ten spot.

9.   Corn: Corn completes any Thanksgiving table, but it isn’t a strictly Thanksgiving food, so it falls at number nine.   

8. Cornbread: This tasty bread cannot be forgotten because it is a staple food and the number eight food for Thanksgiving.

7.   Green Beans: These long skinny vegetables are good, but again not only for Thanksgiving so it’s number seven.

6. Sweet Potatoes: The orange mashed vegetables are made better with marshmallows on top so it’s number six.

5. Gravy: This stuff is like liquid gold; it goes with anything on this list so number five is a good place for it.

4. Mashed Potatoes: Mashed potatoes come to mind when you hear Thanksgiving. They are also really good, but still shy of the top three.

3.  Stuffing: A delicious combination of lots of things that most everyone loves.

2. Pie: The best part is the dessert, and everyone loves pie.

1. Turkey: Claiming the spotlight on Thanksgiving Day, this is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Thanksgiving, so it obviously had to be number one.
