Thursday is Thanksgiving, the American gluttony festival, where people eat their body weight in poultry, potato varieties and pumpkin pie and experience the inevitable food coma on the couch while watching football. Football’s work of art John Madden gave the Americans his “Turducken” recipe during the TV broadcast in 1996. Vegetarians should please skip the next sentence: Turducken is chicken in duck in Turkey, each stuffed with sausage and breadcrumb mixture. The meatless version is “Tofukey”, no one should go away empty-handed that day, but rather eat until you open your pants button – professionals switch to sweatpants after the first load – and have to hide your stomach with a pillow.
