Thanksgiving is a fun time to look forward to, as many get to spend time with family and friends, do not have to worry about school, and most importantly, have amazing food. People love to debate which Thanksgiving food is the best, and which ones are close contenders. Ham, turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, cream of corn, stuffing and the desserts are all amazing.

Many people have different opinions on what their perfect plate looks like on Thanksgiving. Ham, mashed potatoes, cream of corn, and stuffing is the perfect plate. Ham is exceptionally better than turkey in all ways, it is juicer and has a good salty taste. 

Although turkey may be healthier, ham is much better. The majority of the plate is filled with sides such as mashed potatoes mixed with cream of corn, which is also amazing, with stuffing and mac and cheese on the side. Although all this food is amazing, dessert is always a priority. 

Desserts such as apple pie, pumpkin pie, cookies, and cupcakes are all necessities of Thanksgiving dinner. They are great for people with a sweet tooth, and they add the final touch to Thanksgiving. Even though they may be unhealthy, they are too good to resist. 

Starting with the ranking from one being the highest, and ten being the lowest. Starting at number ten is turkey, it is way too dry, almost like eating rubber. Number nine is going to have to be pumpkin pie. Even though the pie is good, there are many better dessert’s. Number eight is going to go to pumpkin cookies as it is a pretty solid dessert, but could be better. Number seven is close, but it has to be stuffing, number six is going to go to chocolate chip cookies. 

Finally, the top five, number five is going to be soda pop, because there always needs to be a beverage. Number four is going to go to mashed potatoes and gravy, number three is gonna go to cream of corn, number two is gonna go to double chocolate brownies, and lastly number one, the reigning champion is ham. All these foods are amazing, but this is the only right list.
