Have you ever thrown a food tantrum during the holidays, gotten all excited for a favorite dish until it hits the table in some bastardized form?

1 Answer

Answer :

My Aunt made the stuffing last year… I was so excited, it’s my favorite (besides the turkey and gravy of course) and she totally botched it. So salty I had to restrain myself not to dump my drink all over my face in front of the entire family. Yep. I know how you feel.
