    Thanksgiving is a cool celebration (not celebrated in my country, though). The mental and emotional state of being thankful for what you have is certainly healthy... Fun session, like you said, they are not the healthiest foods. It's an option though, that can make our celebrations and being vegan a little more fun... To be honest, all the dishes you usually make and share with us look a lot better than these processed foods... It's nice to see you two having fun making these videos and helping people to live a healthier life and our planet to get cured (Crystal's laughter is contagious)... Our friends the beautiful and coquettish turkeys thank you, too 🦃

Truth be told, the Tofurky roast and the Celebration roast are my favs. For reference, I'm 50 and have been vegan since 1992, so I've been through the wars ;-)

    I do enjoy the tofurky roast (the one I've bought comes with gravy 🤔), but honestly for Thanksgiving we make a big roast cauliflower in a bed of roasted veggies (brussel sprouts, rainbow potatoes, jeweled onions, and baby carrots). We don't have any family events to go to though, so we were able to easily make our own traditions. Which is great, but I know it's not that easy for everyone.

Plus, stuffing (a similar recipe to yours), mashed Yukon and Russet potatoes with mushroom gravy (also similar to yours), brussel sprouts, corn, homemade cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie for dessert (for which, no one had room). We all really enjoyed our meal. I hope you both did, as well.
