Derek Gonzales (photo by Michelle Snider)My favorite holiday dish? Does it have to be a dish? Oh man, that’s so hard! Eggnog. It just gives off this festive feeling of Christmas. You need eggnog with Christmas.
Kalja Mores, Major: African American Women’s Studies (photo by Michelle Snider)Mac and cheese, because of all the different combinations of cheeses they put in it. It’s not from the box. It’s from scratch. When my grandma cooks, it’s really good.
Katie Graham, Major: History instructor (photo by Michelle Snider)Oh wow! My favorite holiday dish. My mothers stuffing. What you eat is also about preparation at Thanksgiving. I remember we pulled apart the bread. we didn’t use any old bread.being with my mother and pulling apart the bread, wonderful shells,big pot, Dutch oven. I like the way it tastes. Nobody’s stuffing is as good as my mother’s.
Kerrion Hadnot, Major: Business (photo by Michelle Snider)I have to go with smothered pork chops, candy yams, the lil’ bread, macaroni and cheese, and cabbage. It just feels like home, I’ve been eating it ever since I was young.
