DON'T FORGET THE GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE

Somebody Please Put Me Out Of My Misery!!

Every year about this time IT starts.  What is IT you ask?  I am glad you asked because I am going to tell you.  Every year French's start running commercials for IT...the dreaded green bean casserole.  There is a cute little   keeps saying "don't forget the green bean casserole".  

Every year for about 20 years my dear sister Chrysta would make IT for Thanksgiving.  I ate IT for many years and then I said to myself......self, why are you eating this mess? One year I stopped by her house right before the holidays and I finally had to let it out.  I gave it to her with both barrells.  I started by telling her that I hope she was not making that casserole. I went on a 20 minute rant abo

ut all of the terrible things I could think of related to this dish....Like this was a dish that the French's & Campbell's people thought of to sell more French Fried Onions and condensed soup.  Who uses french fried onions?  Who eats condensed soup?  And why would you put those two things together?  

I went on and on and on....my poor sister just sat there and looked at me like I had lost my mind.  When I finished, she said meekly  "but me and my kids like the green bean casserole".  I could do nothing but laugh.  So every year we have a good laugh and she makes her casserole and I kindly say no thank you :)

So to my sister, my family and friends

Have a Happy Thanksgiving.....and please, leave the French Fried Onions in the cupboard
