Is your terrible turkey putting people to sleep before they even eat it? Have your relatives been stuffing your stuffing in their pockets, and feeding it to Fido later? Try using these delicious ingredients from Toriko, and you'll have then coming back for more! 

Tired of Jive Turkey? 
Try a Bajur Cock!

Even a hundred turkeys couldn’t feed as many people as one giant Bajur Cock! The only problem is, you’ll have to kill it first. And it won’t be easy, because its Capture Level is 74! Try giving it a Melk Stardust dry rub before you cook it to enhance the flavor. Oh, and you’re going to need a big oven—a really, really big oven.  

 

Sick of Dry Stuffing?
Try This “Yolked Out” Recipe! 

Ingredients: Bacon Leaves, Motor Onion, Ten Yolk Egg, Turtle Melon Bread, Seven Flavor Herb

There’s no right or wrong way to make stuffing. So long as you have some kind of bread and a binder (like eggs), you can pretty much throw whatever you want in there. Now if you’re going to stuff a Bajur Cock, you’re going to need a lot of eggs, so we suggest using the Ten Yolk Egg pictured here. And make sure your Turtle Melon Bread is a few days old, so it’s nice and dry!

Gagging on Gross Greens?
Try Harvest Vegetables from Vegetable Sky! 

Meat’s great, but ya gotta have some veggies on Thanksgiving too! Veggie platters, salad, green beans—all that stuff is good. And you can’t beat harvest vegetables from Vegetable Sky! They grow on clouds high in the sky, but to get to them you must climb a giant beanstalk, brave extreme elements, and fight dangerous monsters! Who says eating your veggies can’t be fun?

 

Are Your Yams Causing Yawns? 
Munch on Moai Potatoes!

One bite of these and you’ll be saying “Oh, Moai God!” They’re that good! Not only are they tasty, they’re incredibly rich. And the coolest thing is, they have faces that look similar to the famous Moai statues on Easter Island. They’re not only yummy; they’re a great conversation starter. 

 

Tired of “Meh”-shed Potatoes? 
Pass the Pork Potatoes!

Try using delicious Pork Potatoes! What could possibly be better than mashed potatoes made from potatoes that already taste like pork? Why, you wouldn’t even need gravy! But we do suggest flavoring them with a pinch of Butt Salt. Don’t worry, the salt granules just look like butts, the salt does not actually taste like a butt.  

 

Wanna Pump Up Your Pumpkin Pie? 
Use Marshmallow Pumpkins!

Pumpkin pie is the boss of all Thanksgiving desserts. And for a good reason—it’s scrumptious! It’s a simple recipe without a lot of room for improvement, but there is one way to make yours stand out—make it from delicious Marshmallow Pumpkins grown in Vegetable Sky! 

Falling Asleep to Folgers? 
Stay Awake With Café Ants!

Don’t succumb to classic post‑Thanksgiving dinner slumber! Make coffee with Café Ants! Their thoraxes are coffee beans, their heads are milk, and their abdomens are syrup. You can eat them as is, or put them in hot water and make instant coffee. You don’t wanna fall asleep and miss your relatives fighting, do you?
