These are great ideas! Hosts should make an online sign up sheet.

Why would any of the parents with kids do it again? Sounds like it was a disaster.

Is it normal to bring something that costs $200 when others are bringing some simple homemade dish?

Who hosts a holiday meal without adequate food?
Potluck. You get what you get and you don’t get upset.

Is it 40 people plus 20 kids or are the kids included in the 40? Either way the host needs to provide some guidance. The host should make clear that people should bring enough of what they choose for 40/60 or should indicate that multiple people are needed to bring a certain item.

Thank you for the ideas. I think some filling starch is the way to go. I hope the hosts have wine!

We host a Friendsgiving each year, but it's not a potluck. When people ask what they can bring I always rotate between wine, sourdough rolls, dessert and flowers.
But I think it's the hosts' job to make sure there's enough food for everyone, not the guests (obviously I don't do potlucks).

Mashed potatoes or stuffing or a fall vegetable like Brussels sprouts.
