Okay, I'll admit that I've never shopped there, but this would be a good reason to start!

It's gotta be the tryptophan! There's nothing better than eating a HUGE Thanksgiving meal and then dozing off in the recliner watching football!

Three cheers to tryptophan!

The wishbone! I love to fish it out, eat the meat off it, carefully wash it and leave it out to dry in a place the cat can't get it. When we pull it apart after it's dried, our wish is for a happy and healthy year until the following Thanksgiving.

Any part that's sitting in the pan juices. Not only is the meat drippylicious, it has the added advantage of being hidden so no one can see you've been digging at it with a fork since the instant it came out of the oven, despite your frequent protestations that of course you haven't touched it.
