While we get our Thanksgiving recipes in order and figure out our cooking game plan, a lot of us will be turning to Google, Pinterest, etc. for recipes.
A website called The Kitchn took a look at Google searches from this month to find the most popular Thanksgiving recipes, and what each state searched most.
The most searched Thanksgiving recipe is for stuffing or dressing (depending on what you call it in your neck of the woods). Thirteen states Googled the favorite Thanksgiving carb . . . well, 14 if you count Texas who got specific in Googling “cornbread dressing.”
Four states were all about the pumpkin pie, while two states were more interested in a good salad recipe.
Oh, and three states play by their own rules, being more interested in searching recipes for “ham,” “punch,” and “keto-brisket.”
