The Oyster Stuffing Index: Happy Thanksgiving

Bureau of Labor Statistics

The Oyster Stuffing Index

Americans look forward to many Thanksgiving traditions. There's almost always a turkey, although there may be debate about roasting versus frying, and maybe brining. There's football, perhaps in the back yard before dinner, and certainly while comatose on the sofa after dinner. And there are plans for holiday shopping, either via the phone or standing in pre-dawn lines for early Friday morning deals. Such is Thanksgiving from coast to coast.

Other traditions vary across the country, with regional variations often passed down through the generations. BLS looked at some of the Thanksgiving culinary traditions around the country (with the help of a few internet searches). In New England, the birthplace of Thanksgiving, your turkey dinner is not complete without oyster stuffing and cranberry relish.
