Matthew Yglesias makes the case against turkey.

From my angle, the solution, obviously, is to stuff as many birds inside the turkey as possible. Turducken, perhaps? But no, that is so last decade. Even John Madden has rejected it. Think bigger.

Even though the French have the record, however, I feel that this is a quintessentially American solution to a quintessentially American problem. Bored with the flavor of your industrially produced giant meat? Spice it up with more kinds of meat. As many kinds of meat as possible, in fact.
