1. Don't hate me, but I've always loved that stuff.

When I was a kid I thought it was totally cool that when it blopped out of the can you could see the imprint of the can's seams.

[QED]

2. Me too

My job on TG was slicing it and the can's imprints helped me keep the slices even.

8. I love it too. My Mom always served it

and she used her egg slicer to produce uniform slices. My sister-in-law has been following that example for over 30 years now.

3. It was a thing of beauty.

And the round slice looked so pretty on my plate.

6. I didn't have to buy any this year because

A leftover can from last year doesn't expire until 2022.

Can't believe my luck.

5. Not thanksgiving without it

My grandma could cook TG dinners like it was nobody's business, but we got the cranberry sauce medallions. She knew they were great.

4. not fond of it to eat by itself, but it

makes a helluva glaze for ham or pork roast.

9. It's really good on a turkey sandwich

with dressing (or stuffing, your pick).

11. One of the best sandwiches I ever ate was a turkey sandwich with cranberry sauce.

Stuffing also would be great.

7. Hooray!

I recently, as in no more than three or days ago, read that lots of professional chefs thought that the canned cranberry sauce is far superior than any other. Yes!!

12. And it's my idea of "festive"!

13. Betcha the institutional size cans of that stuff . .

. . .made to the field kitchens and galleys of the US armed forces during World War 2.

15. Disgusting stuff.

I make mine with fresh cranberries, sugar and a tablespoon of Grand Marnier. I don’t like jelly either.

[intrepidity]

16. I'll double.down

Jellied cranberry sauce plus fried spam.

For when you crave Thanksgiving ish but want it fast and easy.

[abqtommy]

17. I'll eat it from the can. I'll eat it spread on spam. Cranberry man I am! nt

[EYESORE 9001]

18. It's a superfood, yunno

That’s what I tell myself while cramming blueberry pie into my mouth.

19. I have eaten a can of ocean spray

Cranberry sauce all by myself. Ate the entire can.1 sitting.

I love cranberry sauce.

Nowadays I wish they had a sugar free version sweetened with stevia.

21. I actually remember the episode of Fibber McGee and Molly where Campbell's announced...

Cream of Mushroom Soup.

Of course it was on a recording of old time radio shows. After all that was in 1934 and I'm not that old.

[Aristus]

22. My little brother always insisted that he have a can of it all to himself.

Worked for me; I got his share of the dressing...
