The Most Popular Thanksgiving Side Dishes for 2024

Thanksgiving season is right around the corner! It's officially pumpkin spice season at least for those who like it. Talking about drinks, food is a big part of the Thanksgiving spirit and for those who celebrate it. Many of the popular American side dishes are baked mac & cheese, sweet and mash potatoes, cranberry Sauce, sweet cornbread, collard greens and stuffing. These all sit alongside the star of the show, the turkey.  But in my opinion, the side dishes are what completes the Thanksgiving table. Do you ever think about what others think about these popular side dishes and which are most favored by many Thanksgiving fanatics? I'm here to give everyone the results from  Hillcrest high school students and what they think are the best side dishes for Thanksgiving day. 

I was able to survey 64 students, 46 of which stated that baked mac & cheese was the best side dish for Thanksgiving day. 8 students voted for baked and sweet potato, 2 students voted for collard greens, 2 students voted for cranberry sauce and finally 2 students voted for cornbread. By the big number gap, mac & cheese won as the most favored and popular side dish for most  Hillcrest students. In my opinion, I also believe that mac & cheese is the best side dish for Thanksgiving day. The side dishes list doesn't end just here, there are also other side dishes loved by many thanksgiving fanatics like roasted vegetables, casserole, salad rolls, roasted squash, and so much more!! On that note, I wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving.
