In researching this post, I asked several Americans to describe their perfect Thanksgiving. Most answers involved some form of passing out cold in a food coma by 5pm. To that end: we give you some Thanksgiving turkeys to take home. The majority of the turkeys listed below are cooked, but there are definitely frozen options. If that's not your speed, we posted a list of options for dining out for Thanksgiving yesterday. Please confirm with restaurants before ordering your turkeys, and remember to reserve in advance. Let us know in the comments space below if we've missed something!

Not half as thankful as the turkey
You obviously missed Vegan Hut, which is hosting a vegetarian Thanksgiving Buffet on Thursday night.
Stumble Inn also has a veggie option for TG this year.
Anyone know any others?
