Related: About this forumOK, Arkansans. How do you feel about this?
As you are well aware, calories don't count on Thanksgiving, but what is your favorite side dish from the endless options?
Zippia, a website that helps people find new career options, used data from Google Trends during the month of November 2019 to determine what people are searching for the most in each state.
Unsurprisingly, mashed potatoes and mac and cheese led the way, with 10 and 7 states choosing those as their favorites, respectively.
Arkansas happened to be the only state opting for white gravy above all other side dishes.

I like white gravy, but I've never seen it served for Thanksgiving. You?

biscuits with eggs and sausage. No reason why I wouldn't like it for Thanksgiving!

If youll indulge me. How does one pronounce the word Arkansans?
Is it like Ar-Can-Zans, with emphasis on the Can, or is it Ar-Can-Saw-Uns, with emphasis on the Saw? 😆
