Picky eaters or Speeeecialllll Dieterrrrsssss who can't make a plate from multiple options, which always include a plain green vegetable and/or a green salad in many Thanksgiving spreads, in addition to the lean protein that is turkey--can get over themselves. If you're so picky and precious, don't come. That is, indeed, the point. Allergies and legitimate restrictions, I'm happy to work with you. Suddenly South Beach, you can stay home.[/quote]

The problem is you’re interpretation of a legitimate restriction. If some has heart disease and does not want to eat a fat laden meal is that legitimate? Is being a vegetarian legitimate to you? Vegetarians don’t want to eat just steamed kale.[/quote]

DP. Is the vegetarian going to scoop up a serving of sausage and apple dressing and announce that it just looks soooo good? I'm betting not, so I will make sure there's enough variety that the vegetarian can get a proper meal.

Can always low fat diner not eat turkey and plain veggies and salad, plus small tastes of anything fattier that looks appealing? Again, there will be variety. Will I make an entire low-fat pumpkin cheesecake that no one else will want? Nope.

If you want to eat your preferred menu rather than come over, I get it. I ate some terrible food prepared by my MIL because she wanted to host sometimes. I had plenty of opportunities to eat things I liked cooked the way I liked them. [/quote]
