last week we had we had some a little bit
of commotion amongst my co hosts where we where we
kind of fell off in agreement. We were we were
on the same page for a second. I see we

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Oh my goodness. So Number five is stuffing, like it
depends on who makes this. So I'm gonna go from

who makes it, and I don't want to hear about
any gluten free stuffing that sounds terrible. Number four is greens, right,
Greens are a number four for me personally, number three. Ooh,

(01:09):
you said I couldn't save one, but I'm definitely gonna
say macaroni pie to switch it up, because my family

the traditional Black American dish. We do macaroni pie and
I love it. Second is gravy. We're just gonna say gravy.

It's it's it's interchangeable. But but but beef brisket or

is that that is one of the staples. That is

(08:21):
that is one of the things I don't consider that,
you know it it's kind of goat ish. It may

Number two double eggs, and I and I hate all.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
Of you are not having eggs, oh.

Speaker 5 (08:45):
Like, because you know we look look look.

Speaker 8 (08:52):
Or false, my people of color, double eggs is the
first thing that you eat when you get there, because
none of the food is done.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
That's fair.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
That's fair for one reason and one reason only.

Speaker 3 (09:06):
If I eat devil eggs too soon, I'm gonna I'm
gonna pass gas all night.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
So I can't.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
Somebody like that.

Speaker 1 (09:17):

Speaker 4 (09:24):
So No.

Speaker 8 (09:27):
The great thing is my aunt, you know, my dad's
side of the family. They're like really churchy, so they
don't call devil eggs double eggs. They called devil eggs
angel eggs.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
And then number one.

Speaker 5 (09:40):
Greens greens, greens like greens.

Speaker 8 (09:46):
I almost put the angel eggs number one, but I
was like, you know what, I enjoy the greens more so.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
So yeah, that's my list.

Speaker 7 (09:54):
Man, devil eggs number that's hot.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Let me explain to you why you all list was
completely wrong and and just bad around body. I have
faith in you because you were going and I listen.
Number five. Nobody mentioned number five on my list.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
The pies.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
You have to if the if the food is good
at the end of the night, the pies. And then
and listen in the household going to luck, you ain't
invited because you're talking at punkin bs.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
We are eating pies. We ain't.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
We ain't messing with no pumpkin pies. We ain't messing
with that at all. Up you are on your own
with that one. Good brother, we messing with the sweet tape. Yeah,
I don't better be good. I don't eat pies. That's
why I didn't put that on. I don't eat no pie.

Speaker 5 (10:40):
About dinner, not dessert. I mean, that's a whole different castle.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Bang, bang you over there with the fly.

Speaker 7 (10:46):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Number four, Greens, It has to be greens. You have
to have some greens in there. That is what's going
to make everything come out even better when you get
home from wherever the function you were at. The greens
are a must. And please make sure you were making
the greens right. Not too much vinegar. We don't want
to taste all that. Not too much hot sauce. We
want to actually enjoy the greens. But put the enough

(11:13):
in there so it's right there in the middle. Make
sure you got a good ballance of everything. Number three
that caught some flag for this last week, and I'm
gonna stand on top of this cranberry sauce out the
can cann cranberry sauce. If y'all don't shake your heads
all you want, everybody, I see the disappointment in your eyes.
Can cranberry sauce is absolutely amazing. And listen, don't don't

(11:35):
try to spice it up and everything like that. Do
a bunch of stuff cut, cut with the with the
lines provided for you down at can Granberry. So we're
gonna trash that. That's gonna scoop up everything good at
the end.

Speaker 8 (11:46):
Number two, don't don't do that because those lines are there,
because those are can lines.

Speaker 5 (11:52):
Those aren't.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
It's guidelines. It's guidelines.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
That's where you cut at You don't try to a
little jab it up with the spoon and nothing and
break it.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
Up to God, this list is insane.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Some are some are gonna be big.

Speaker 4 (12:11):
It's ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
List.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
What else?

Speaker 1 (12:14):
Number two the Ham? Now listen. People are like, well,
listen Muslin onlyr Ham. Listen. This is our holiday. This
is it.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
You're gonna make the ham and you better make sure
it got some pineapples. You better make sure it got
some brown sugar and some honey on it. Don't just
put a ham inside with some water and call it
a day. I don't want a bunch of seasonings on there.
Give me, give me what's good with the ham. And
number one, this is the goat and yams. I don't
know why y'all didn't say. I heard, I heard, I

(12:44):
heard I heard Lep say scrambled yams or whatever the
hell he was talking about. And you put that, and
you put the little marshmallows on there, and then listen
when you're making them, they're gonna melt. Then a couple
more on top of them things. Man, that is how
you make some yams. But that is the correct list, everybody.

(13:09):
I know there's I know there's no backlash from it.
So but if y'all have.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Anything because potatoes the first question, well.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
We're gonna we're gonna catch it. We're gonna catch it.
But that was this week's top ten, lady. My list
was right, and.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
I'm gonna have to agree.

Speaker 8 (13:32):
Any any list that includes cranberry sauce like that is fact.

Speaker 4 (13:37):
Automatic automatic disqualification.

Speaker 7 (13:40):
Ma'am, I'm a salad at number one, you are not
