Campbell’s Soup released its annual Thanksgiving poll on America’s favorite sides . . . and in a major upset, mashed potatoes is NOT #1. It fell to #2 this year behind stuffing.

The Top Five are: Stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, and mac-and-cheese.

56% of Americans like Thanksgiving sides more than the entrée . . . so turkey, ham, or some sort of nut loaf if you’re vegan. And 38% say they’d be fine to fill their plate with JUST side dishes. Also, 43% of adults say they will celebrate Friendsgiving this year.
