Canned or fresh: The great cranberry sauce debate
axios ^

Posted on 11/22/2021 1:07:08 PM PST by mylife

Americans are divided over whether to have fresh or canned cranberry sauce at their Thanksgiving table, according to data from Instacart.

By the numbers: Fresh cranberry sauce has a slight edge, winning 26 states to canned cranberries' 24 states.

Mississippians are 22.3% more likely to buy canned cranberry sauce compared to the national average. Iowans are 70.6% more likely to buy fresh cranberries. Of note: The top four states for cranberry production — Wisconsin, Massachusetts, New Jersey and Oregon — are split on cranberry preferences, according to the Agricultural Marketing Resource Center.

Wisconsinites and Oregonians lean toward fresh berries. Massachusetts and New Jersey residents prefer canned cranberries.

You can’t get the cab ring impressions in fresh. They add flavor.

Actually the real controversy is smooth or chunky.

I find that the canned are much more difficult to string around the Christmas Tree...

I wonder....

Never could stand the stuff and I grew up in cranberry land. Used to ice skate on a cranberry bog. They flood them for the winter. All I’ve ever had was the canned stuff though.

I freakin hate cranberry sauce. But do like eating dried cranberries out of the container, or mixing bag into the oatmeal. Just keep that sh-t away from my turkey or ham

I had Lingonberry from Sweden once, and that’s good, too. Maybe not quite as tart, if I recall.

That is not a bad idea. Not a bad idea at all.

You can now take Thanksgiving dinner on a fishing trip!

I grew up on both canned or fresh depending on how poor we were that particular year. I guess canned was cheaper, but truthfully, I’m assuming that. I just know we had one or the other at various times.

These days I prefer mine from fresh.

This year I’m attempting the fermented kind but I don’t think it will be ready before I leave for my trip, so it will have to wait until I get back from the holiday to try it.

I hope I didn’t mess it up. The raw honey was sort of expensive.
