If there’s one fall tradition most Americans cherish, it’s eating a big dinner on Thanksgiving.

An estimated 46 million turkeys will be roasted, sliced, and served alongside mashed potatoes, stuffing, and gravy during the holiday. And if you’re lucky, there will be leftover turkey sandwiches for noshing on Black Friday, too.
