| Christmas Dinner"THe revenge of the Turkey" Posted: 11/5/2009 5:03:14 AM | If they are being bred for the consumption of humans etc., they have to get back in their own way by the meat being unplesent and tastelss, or else their death would have been in vain. I have turkey but then I disguise it by adding all sorts of things and have a theme for the christmas lunch. So far its be Italian, Morrocan, Ho down, Hawaian , Tudor England, and few more where I have dressed the table accordingly. One year I had areal mean chillie mmmm, and another year a crisp sald with pickles etc, luvly jubbly. Also why do people insist that you spend the day with them. I have either worked or helped out and have even spent it on my own .All I have said to my boys is do what ever you want to do, but pitch up sometime over the week etc. far easier. AS for spending the day with reletives what about the other days of the year, why just that day.  | |

| Christmas Dinner Posted: 11/5/2009 12:27:42 PM | I really wouldn't advise cooking a 'Turnkey', that is a property that is ready to move into and wouldn't taste too good in my opinion.

I wouldnt mind a wee bitta cokc for my xmas dinner this year............ Do you roast it? Wrap it in bacon? Does it need much basting?
I too am veggie, so it's Quorn roast for me. All the christmas trimmings though, including sprouts because I love 'em! | |

| Christmas Dinner Posted: 11/5/2009 4:12:24 PM | It's cos we get all the family together and turkey is a handy size to feed 14 people at once, eh?
We eat, drink, smile, play and hope they all leave by boxing day! | |
