Same here. Turkey, stuffing, mashed taters - regular or sweet, creamed onions, and maybe something green - Brussel sprouts or green bean casserole.
Could care less about dessert.
I like to fill up on doughy rolls instead:

Americans will soon be gathering for their Thanksgiving feast. But there are certain “Turkey Day” dishes that many people aren’t thankful to see on the table or their plate. A travel website, The Vacationer, surveyed 1,092 adults to find the most disliked Thanksgiving foods. Cranberry sauce tops the list with nearly 30% of those surveyed opting to pass on it. The second most disliked food is Turkey! Yes, turkey!!! (Whaaat??) Followed by sweet potatoes, green bean casserole and stuffing (or dressing for those of you in the South). So, if you’re doing the cooking this year, take note, plan accordingly and have a Happy Thanksgiving.
1 Cranberry Sauce (29.92% dislike) 2 Turkey (28.09% dislike) 3 Sweet Potatoes or Yams (24.25% dislike) 4 Green Bean Casserole (24.61% dislike) 5 Stuffing or Dressing (23.42% dislike) 6 Coleslaw (21.68% dislike) 7 Ham (21.23% dislike) 8 Pumpkin Pie (20.77% dislike) 9 Mashed Potatoes (17.57% dislike) 10 Macaroni and Cheese (14.73% dislike) 11 Corn (13.82% dislike) 12 Carrots (12.08% dislike)
Nodaiwa
Famed for its specialty grilled eel in Japan that has achieved a Michelin star, Nodaiwa’s outpost in Paris aims to deliver the exact same gourmet experience. With eel (unagi) as the undisputed star of the meal, the restaurant abides by an ancestral recipe—one that seeks out to bring the best flavours of the eel. Atop pillowy white rice, lies the tender slab of fillet—first doused in a secret marinate before going on the grill. If umami is what you seek while in Paris, here’s the perfect spot. (Vogue review)

Probably polled girls under 16.
Mashed potatoes are disgusting as are Brussels sprouts.
Swedish lingonberries are an excellent substitute for cranberry sauce.
Doing the cooking this year.
You have two choices.
Take it or leave it.
Who on God's green earth does not like mashed potatoes and gravy?
I have a hard time with most frozen turkeys. They taste “old” when oven roasted. So we have been getting smoked turkey instead.
I love me some turkey, dressing (which I am making tomorrow evening to bring to my Thanksgiving gathering), mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, corn…I grew up on all of that.
I don’t like mac & cheese and it was never part of our Thanksgiving dinner when I was growing up. I think it’s kind of a new thing?
On a day that is meant to number your blessings and be thankful, here we have people bitching about what they don’t like.
Take a spoonful or pass the dish and be glad you have a seat at the table.
Amen
If you like dwarf cabbages...
Brother just returned from the scrapyard, they gave him a frozen bird.
We’ll take it!
Collard greens and black-eyed peas! Yuk! Okra, Double Yuk!

We is served or eats cole slaw on Thanksgiving?!?
I will get around to just about ALL of the dislike list. Done right, I like all of it and am thankful that it will be there on Thanksgiving for me to enjoy.
This country has become a hoard of chronic bitchers. God has blessed us beyond measure. It is high time we respond to Him appropriately with much deserved gratitude and humility.
Cranberry sauce 29.2% ??????
Some of my most fond memories from the 50s and 60s (and afterwards) are from that can of jellied cranberries straight from the can and sliced off 2 or 3. I also remember the ribs that ran around the middle from the can. I have 4 cans of it ready for this Thanksgiving. For my taste, those 29.2% are probably the same people that voted for Biden and the other Democrats.
Mac and cheese I believe is a standard African-American side dish at Thanksgiving.
*Who
We have a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with family.
My wife is in charge of sweet potato casserole, everyone raves over it. Yuck!
Mom used to cook up sausage to make the stuffing, Yay!
Remember Archie Bunker getting on Edith for going to the trouble of making fresh cranberry sauce?
“Edith, why don’t you just go to the store and get REAL cranberry sauce that comes in a can?”
