I dislike these sorts of rankings. The assumption is “most searched” equals “most popular”. All it takes is one local news story with an “ewwwww!” factor to skew the results. Besides that, the REAL favorites don’t have to be “searched” because people know them so they don’t have to look them up.

I just adore cranberries. I make real cranberry sauce not the canned one. I’ll make an apple bread with dried cranberries and walnuts, too.

Ingredients - 4 SERVINGS
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
15 ounces condensed cream of chicken soup
3 cups cubed potatoes (frozen, thawed at room temperature for at least 30 minutes)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter (melted)
2 cups Corn Flakes Cereal
Funeral potatoes is a traditional potato hotdish or casserole that is popular in the American Intermountain West and Midwest. Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints call the casserole "funeral" potatoes because it is commonly served as a side dish during traditional after-funeral dinners, such as those planned by members of the Relief Society. But the dish is also served at other church dinners, both within and outside of the LDS Church, as well as at potlucks and other social gatherings.

How did Cranberries ever get into this feast? Yuk.
The first Thanksgiving was in Massachusetts. Massachusetts is known for lobsters and cranberries. I imagine there were lots of wild turkeys in the 17th century, too.
The canned Ocean Spray version is so sweetened that it is rendered inoffensive to those who don't like tartness.
The real offensive thing is macaroni and cheese. I made it a condition of marriage that it would never enter my house. My future wife agreed.
The folks who made this "survey" don't know how to spell "marshmallow".

Good sweet potatoes need nothing more than pools of butter to do the job.

Collard Greens my butt.
I’ve never heard of a single person here in MD that even had Collard Greens on TG. East, west, or in between.
This must be a “Baltimore” (i.e., demographic) thing.
I’d think stuffing is #1.
As far as “unusual” (but how is collard greens usual?) - we do seem to like our sauerkraut. I have to be careful or I might miss out buying the best before TG and Xmas.

Amen to the butter.
The cinnamon is really good though.
And I confess to a sweet tooth, so I add a smidgen of dark brown sugar.
Funny thing, I’m a life long NYSer. And I’ve never seen or heard of anyone serving sweet potatoes with marshmallows.
Maybe it’s a Downstate thing...

Our mom used to serve the less processed version of canned cranberries, which still had the shells.
It seemed like we were eating sticks and twigs.

No it wasn't. “Thanksgiving” was a frequent offering anywhere.
You Pilgrims were not the first (English) in the US territories and were not the first to offer up “thanksgiving”.
Even Columbus did this on the Caribbean shores.

It’s like cracker barrel potatoes. I make it. It’s crushed corn flakes on top mixed with hot butter first then put on top of shredded hash brows. Just look up copy cat cracker barrel potatoe recipe.

Nothing wrong with you. Like I said in a previous post, some local news story probably mentioned it, and a bunch of NYers said, "ewww" and looked it up.
The people in NY who "searched" for "this dish were NOT looking for a recipe to make it. The stuff they like they already know how to make.
I am from Connecticut, and while the marshmallow thing is know, it is not common. However, it is huge in the midwest and the deep south, where I have also lived.
My Canadian wife was quite disgusted and gawked in disbelief when she first witnessed it in Rockford, Illinois. But then, in Rockford, the owner of my old company made a special salad to go with the company pizza that included sliced bananas. "Ewwwww!"

Were the nanas on the pizza or the salad...?
Nanas on salad, well, not my cuppa, but I’d try it.
Nanas on pizza...
GACK.
