My friend Slartibartfast (aka Tom) takes issue with stuffing, which I happen to think is one of the BEST foods ever. He prefers dressing, where I solidly land in the “Meh” category of food,
Let me be clear: stuffing is an abomination.
It dries out the turkey, it introduces harmful bacteria, and it’s a serious misuse of breadcrumbs. And I’d really rather not stick my arm up the inner cavity of a bird any more than I have to.
Dressing, more specifically cornbread dressing, is one of the greatest foods ever created. Done right, it is moist but not soggy, flavorful but not pungent, and compliments the turkey perfectly. It’s good as a leftover, and I even like it cold, right out of the refrigerator.
Stuffing with giblets, giblet gravy, real potato mashed potatoes, drooooool.
What do you prefer? Stuffing or dressing?
