Let’s talk about Thanksgiving, shall we? Specifically, Thanksgiving food, most of which is just disgusting. There, I said it. It’s disgusting. Canned cranberry sauce, stuffing, sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie — there’s a reason we only eat this crap once a year and it has nothing to do with tradition: it’s because they all suck. Now, I know some of you pro-pumpkin and pro-sweet potato people are gonna hate on me for this, but you people are just freaks. Sorry, but you are. The only half-edible way to eat sweet potatoes is fried — and they still don’t come close to plain old French fries — and the only thing pumpkins are good for is making jack-o-lanterns. Real talk.
However, there are two Thanksgiving dishes that don’t suck — far from it — which is why many people eat them often throughout the year: turkey and mac-n-cheese. Unlike the aforementioned Thanksgiving culinary suckage, they’re delicious, and they go well together. Everyone knows this — except old, white, moralistic, evangelical as$holes like Pat Robertson, apparently.
“What is this ‘mac and cheese? Is that a black thing?” Robertson asked a black 700 Club correspondent today after former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice named it as her favorite Thanksgiving food.
Now, how the hell can anyone who’s been on this Earth living in the southern part of America for 81 years not know what the hell mac-n-cheese is? Doesn’t he know this is what the angels serve for BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER up in Heaven? The only explanation I have is that God hates Pat Robertson so much that she has purposely kept him away from one of life’s greatest simple pleasures all these years. Serves the old “fags and aborted fetuses caused 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina” prick right. Here’s hoping he’s never experienced a blowjob, either!
Now y’all go out and have yourselves a great Thanksgiving — and be sure to eat plenty of mac-n-cheese! We might pop in with a post or two on Black Friday, or we might not — it all depends on how we feel, honestly — but we’l be back to our regularly scheduled programming on Monday. So again — have a lovely Thanksgiving from all of us at Uproxx.

no need to call your readers names ass hole. stuffing is awesome. and so is pumpkin pie. the only reason pumpkin pie is eaten “once a year” is because it is seasonal. you are so in yo’ face!
@Plow…YOU ARE WRONG WRONG WRONG!!!!!! THOSE FOODS SUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKK! THIS IS SOMETHING I’M REALLY PASSIONATE ABOUT, PLOW! (CAN YOU TELL?)
you’ve redeemed yourself by being so groveling. but, c’mon, your username is from an adam sandler skit, so, how can i take you seriously?
CB, your take on sweet potatoes is the most alarming thing about this post. I already knew Pat Robertson was a racist lunatic gasbag.
You clearly have the palate of an eight year old.
I eat pumpkin pie year-round, you sad, broken shell of a man.
And, dude, turkey? Really? Turkey is the most foul of poultry. There’s a reason I had Swansonsgiving this year and went for the steak.
ALL OF YOU PEOPLE ARE WRONG!!!
I can agree with the sweat potatoes and cranberry sauce a little — its not among my favorite either, but if you dislike stuffing, slow roasted turkey with based with beer and rosemary you (or the one cooking for you) is just a downright horrid cook. Quite contrary to your argument, the reason the choice of cuisine is generally served once a year is tradition and is generally a mockup of the historical Thanksgiving meal with the Native Americans.
Even still today, people eat seat potatoes regularly with meals, even stuffing (Stopher’s “Stove-Top Stuffing” is a year-around seller), however Pumpkins, Cranberry sauce, and many other fruits are seasonal and historical to that first Thanksgiving meal.
Maybe he only thinks of it as Kraft Dinner, like us Canadians.
