The Thanksgiving holiday is only a few days away; family & friends from near and far will be gathering around the dinner table to “gobble-gobble” up the goodies and give thanks.
While you’re thinking about what you are thankful for this Turkey Day, we wanted to share a few informational statistics on the average Thanksgiving dinner around the United States.
Let’s go inside the numbers for Thanksgiving:
10, 3, $130, and 9:
10 is the numbered average of people invited, 3 is the averaged number hours that the gathering lasts, $130 is the average cost of the meal, and 9 is the number of days that the host had for planning and prepping.
1st, 2nd, and 3rd:
These numbers are the top 3 foods that people eat at the the family gathering: 1st- Turkey & Stuffing, 2nd- Mashed Potatoes, and 3rd- Pumpkin Pie.
33%:
This percentage is the number of people who pretend they cooked something that was really store bought if people compliment it.
75%:
This percentage is the number of people who would serve turkey that fell on the floor. (5-second rule)
Have a wonderful, blessed, and safe Thanksgiving holiday!
Bon Apetit & Safety First!
