[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I keep seeing Mac and Cheese on Thanksgiving menus. Is that a new thing? Mac and Cheese - which many love - seems more diner like than something for a special meal.[/quote] Yes. It's becoming common in holiday food journalism. I think it's more of a Southern African-American tradition. Like Juneteenth, it's now something that's reaching awareness in other parts of the country and it's going mainstream because it works well for a lot of people. I run across a lot of people who cook turkeys but don't really like turkey meat. And our American culture has enshrined Mac 'n' Cheese as a universally-acceptable kid food (sadly my kids hated it but at least they ate Chicken Tenders). https://www.reddit.com/r/AskCulinary/comments/e03y0t/is_mac_n_cheese_a_traditional_thanksgiving_menu/ You could look it at like this: Mac 'n' Cheese is the "new" Green Bean Casserole (the one with the soup mix and fried onions on top).
