... Turducken.

Has anyone actually cooked this monstrosity?

The question begs to be asked; Turducken or deep fried: which is the worse Thanksgiving disaster?

I'm definitely leaning towards the Turducken.

...What's a Turducken?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

A chicken.

Stuffed inside a duck.

Stuffed inside a turkey.

[harmonixerdemon.livejournal.com]

What the hell? People actually cook something like that?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Yes. And eat it.

[harmonixerdemon.livejournal.com]

Why stuff them all in each other? You'd think it would be easier to eat if you cooked them all separately.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Yes, but apparently, people like the challenge.

[harmonixerdemon.livejournal.com]

...I think I'll just stick with regular food.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a solid plan to me.

[gusadere.livejournal.com]

[See icon. Very relevant.]

... Such a thing, exists?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

... Yes, sadly.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

I know. Believe me, I know.

It could be worse.

it could be an... Osturducken.

[gusadere.livejournal.com]

...

Where would they find an Ostrich?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

You'd be surprised.

If my memory serves, the largest nested bird roast involved 17 birds...

[gusadere.livejournal.com]

I wonder what the Osturducken would fit into... Maybe a human body?

Is this a common scenario during Thanksgiving?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Not really. Popularity for it's gone up recently, though. Some places even put together the Turducken for you and all you have to do is roast it.

[gusadere.livejournal.com]

..... This is just an American trend, yes?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

As far as I know? Yes.

[gusadere.livejournal.com]

Wonderful! I would have started to get worried if these things started showing up in stores.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

I don't think you have to worry.

[gusadere.livejournal.com]

I'm glad! It would be rather strange if suddenly everyone in my class had a......

............. One of those things.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Well, Japan doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving, so I think you're in the clear.

[gusadere.livejournal.com]

Well, every month or so I go and set up dinner at Nagato-san's house. To hear that kind of request from her would be a bit disconcerting...

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Ah, you cook? So do I, but sometimes I fail at it.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

You couldn't just do turkey, or something?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Some people find that too ordinary.

Me, I just want a nice turkey, thanks.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

Then make a turkey. Or move somewhere that doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

I dunno, Thanksgiving is kind of the official 'stuff yourself till you fall asleep on the couch' holiday.

Well, one of them.

[damnfinecoffee.livejournal.com]

I thought every holiday was the official 'stuff yourself till you fall asleep on the couch' holiday?

You could buy a large turkey. Or lots of turkeys and stuff the turkey with turkey.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't the tryptophan kill you?

[mercwamouth]

Turducken: When two kinds of poultry are not enough. Only in America!

Truth be told, I think deep fried would be the better option. Everything tastes better deep fried.

Plus if you accidentally melt someone's face with the fryer, it'll make a funny story.

...Come to think of it, a deep fryer would be a good thing to have in the likely event of a random vampire attack.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

... Death by deep fryer?

I'm intrigued!

[mercwamouth]

Ding! Fries are done!

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

But are they burnt, or just crunchy? Fried need to be crunchy on the outside ONLY.

[mercwamouth]

Does it matter if they're made of vampires?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Guess not, but it's the principle of the thing.

[mercwamouth]

Vampire hunters with principles tend to get killed faster.

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Nuh uh! I mean, Buffy died, what, 2, 3, times and she's still kicking it. Granted, one rebirth was my doing and totally NOT the right thing to do, but...

[mercwamouth]

Yeah, but they just do that for good cliffhanger material.
