Turkey could be considered a weapon in some people's hands, or on their feet, lol.

What makes a turkey kosher?

Do they kill them with a holy hand grenade?

Turkeys are a weapon! The day is young and we haven't gotten Maple's report yet on the turkey delivery. For the sake of those who weren't on at this time last year, she got attacked by a band of dead turkeys!

You'll get this story when you peel my cold, dead turkey from my hands! -Mapleleaf

Maple, I was attacked a few weeks ago on my way to the Nockamixon hike by a live turkey....

Was driving on the road and this turkey just jumps out of the side of the woods and attacks the hood of my car while I'm doing about 45mph or so. The second it jumped on, it glided back off without a care.

Freakin turkeys. He was so cute though. (Don't worry, I don't think he was hurt).

Live turkeys don't count. The dead, frozen ones are much more dangerous and COLD hearted!

The best turkey story was the WKRP episode when they dropped live turkeys from a helicopter before realizing they couldn't fly.

THE TURKEY POPULATION IS STEADILY INCREASING HERE ON CAPE COD. FREQUENT(ALMOST DAILY SITINGS)OF MOTHERS AND CHICKS, DURING THE SUMMER.

I DON'T THINK THERE IS A HUNTING SEASON FOR THEM HERE

Cook on StoveStomper,,,the odds are that people who never had deep fried turkey wouldn't have a clue about boiled peanuts either.

Or crawfish,,,,or a cajun shrimp boil,,, or whole hog hickory BBQ,,,

I draw the line with salads. Deep fried lettuce just has no appeal!

and I notice that ripe tomatoes tend to go off with a bang when you drop them in grease.....


however, there is not much better than a good serving of fried green tomatoes
