The Top 5 rankings are almost as much of a tradition as the Football program, and this is the perfect time to bring it back! It is that time of the year again, the leaves are changing, winds are gusting, and that means one thing, Thanksgiving must be right around the corner. Thanksgiving is about family coming together, but it is also about the amazing food we get. Here is the list of the Top 5 best foods served at Thanksgiving.

1. Turkey- it is the Thanksgiving dinner turkey, enough said.

2. Mashed Potatoes and Gravy- This is not the instant potatoes that everyone makes throughout the year; it is the one time of year where we get real, homemade potatoes.

3. Cheesy Potatoes- Everyone has a different kind of recipe for cheesy potatoes. The differences can make or break the meal for the family. This item ties in the whole meal.

4. Stuffing- When the turkey comes out, the stuffing will come. There always has to be stuffing with the turkey, without the stuffing the turkey is incomplete.

5. Riverside Pumpkin Crunch Pie- Thanksgiving must have a dessert to top the meal off, and the combination of the pumpkin and the crunch in the pumpkin crunch pie is a great way to end the dinner.
