It’s election season, and every day there’s “surprising” new polls, but NOTHING is as earth-shattering as this…

Campbell’s Soup released its annual Thanksgiving Poll on America’s favorite sides… and in a major upset, mashed potatoes is NOT #1.  It fell to #2 this year behind stuffing.

The Top Five are:  Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes, Sweet potatoes, Green Bean Casserole, and Mac-and-Cheese.

56% of Americans like Thanksgiving sides more than the entrée… so turkey, ham, or some sort of nut loaf if you’re vegan.  And 38% say they’d be fine to fill their plate with JUST side dishes.

Also, 43% of adults say they will celebrate Friendsgiving this year.
