Canadian Thanksgiving

[Lancecastor]

...is next Monday....I can already smell the stuffed seal and cod cheeks baking in the oven.

I read somewhere Americans eat deep fried turkey as a meme for boiling and burning Indians.

Savages.

Who the hell would deep fry a turkey

Big deal in the States, mostly amongst Americans of German descent.

I know a few hillbillys that use that method...disgusting thing to do to a turkey.

Mine will be stuffed and oven roasted with all the fixings.

Why do Americans wait till almost Christmas for Thanksgiving

American poultry farmers go into heat from Halloween until the November Full Moon.

It was based on when the harvest was.

They used to do that in Canada, too. You prolly don't remember how life was before 1957.

In the USA, the word "harvest" is apparently a euphemism for "turkey fucking", which the Huffington Post suggests is standard practice in the USA Meat Supply.

a bit, yeah

Deep frying a turkey makes the skin extra crisp and the insides stay moist and tender. I normally roast mine but I can see why people like it deep fried.

Stuffed seal? Like a seal, seal? That doesn't sound very tasty.

Seal flipper pie is the real deal, young maid.

Americans eat baby cows and call it "veal" as if it's a different species.

Canadian Thanksgiving is on American Columbus Day? That's interesting. (The U.S. really gets off on celebrating Columbus...just don't tell the kiddos he's not really a hero. Heaven forbid we tell kids the truth).

I edited to add. Columbus Day is irksome to me. Genocide Day may be more apt, you know?

Wow, I thought you were joking. What does it taste like?


We eat stranger things than baby cow.

I've never liked veal, it does taste different than regular beef. It's been a long time but I remember it lacked texture and flavor.

 

[Lancecastor]

Seal tastes a lot like heather mccartney's leg.

(Canadian joke)

It's a bit oily, like gamey greasy roast beef.

But especially on the east coast we club our own thanksgiving seal and make mittens from the hide.

 

[parodyluvr75]

And they say everything tastes like chicken.

The fact is he never discovered North America, Vikings were the first Europeans with settlements, he landed in the Caribbean.
