Here's what Thanksgiving dish you are based on your zodiac sign

Thanksgiving: one of the best and worst holidays. Although we love nothing more than eating Thanksgiving food around the table with family, the feeling of being so full shortly after can make us regret every bite. Since we aren’t there yet, let’s see which yummy traditional dish matches your personality! Here’s what Thanksgiving food you are based on your zodiac sign:

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19): BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP

As an Aries, you are bold and definitely own multiple statement pieces in your closet. You make yourself known and will not be forgotten by others. You have a little sparkle or spice that makes you different from others! With that being said, you match perfectly with butternut squash soup because it is a traditional sweet soup that has a little spice — creating a very unique and unforgettable taste.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20): DINNER ROLL

Aw, sweet Taurus, you are always someone people can depend on. You are always there when a friend needs you and, when you are given a job, you make sure it gets finished ASAP! You’re just like the classic dinner roll at the big table filled with food. Now, you may take this as saying you're basic and don’t add much, but that’s far from the truth. Everyone at the table is grabbing a dinner roll, if not two. You are loved by everyone.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20): STUFFING

As a biased Gemini myself, stuffing is definitely the most fitting dish for all my Geminis out there. Gemini is the sign for twins. However, not all Geminis are going to be the same, and there are a lot of dimensions and complexity to them. Stuffing is a fan favorite across all boards, but if you’ve noticed, it's never made exactly the same and may have some ingredients that other kinds lack. So, Gemini, you are not like the others! You are your own person and are not limited to a few specific personality traits.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22): GRAVY

Cancers have always been known for their strong intuition. There’s a lot more to you than what appears on the outside. You are always thinking and have a lot of ideas in your head that you wait for the right time to share. Gravy is able to add a lot to a meal, but people who have never tried it are usually very hesitant to. This dish is able to add a whole new flavor to your Thanksgiving meal. People just haven’t given it a try! You hold so much power that is hidden behind the surface, so share it with the world. 

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22): TURKEY

Now, Leo, I know you don’t find it surprising that you ended up as the main dish. You are very self-aware, and your goal every day is to be the main character. When you walk into a room, you make it known. Different from the others, you are matched with this food not because of the taste, but because Thanksgiving couldn’t be Thanksgiving without the turkey. Round of applause for you, and keep up the confidence. 

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22): MASHED POTATOES

We have to admit, Virgos: it takes a while to figure out what suits you best. You are a person who likes to blend in with others and mostly keep to yourself. Don’t get me wrong, you have a ton of dimensions (you just pick and choose who will see it). Nothing could be more fitting for you than mashed potatoes. You are a staple food at the table that the majority likes. Mashed potatoes are usually the food we look forward to the most when it’s time to dig in! You may be underestimated at times, but you only open up to the people who truly deserve to see the powers you possess! You rock.

LIBRA (SEPT. 22-OCT. 22): SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP

You are the perfect balance, Libra. You are always focusing on harmony and perfection. Although you can sometimes be indecisive, you always end up picking the best option for everyone, including yourself. Nothing goes better together on the Thanksgiving table than spinach and artichokes. Many people don’t like these two ingredients alone, but when they are made into a dip with melted cheese and corn chips, they can’t get enough.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21): SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE

​​

Scorpio, you are definitely a sweet and savory kind of person. You have a sweet side when people become close to you, but from the outside, you show that people should not mess with you. Just like this dish, people who have never had it might be afraid to try it because it is a very unique blend of ingredients. As soon as people take a bite, they are overwhelmed by the sweet taste of marshmallows before getting the more savory taste of sweet potato. 

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21): GREEN BEANS

As a Sagittarius, you are well known for your intellectual capabilities. With that in mind, you’re always in need of good and healthy foods to keep your brain sharp. At the dinner table, green beans are one of the healthier options but always a staple. Green beans can be combined with plenty of different dishes, just like how you can adapt to almost any environment. 

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19): PUMPKIN PIE

Capricorns, don’t try to hide it. You are very competitive and ambitious because you want to be the best. When people think of Thanksgiving, they think pumpkin pie. Everyone grabs at least one slice of pumpkin pie before the night is over. Just like the dish, you’re a slice of heaven when it’s needed. Although you may be a little self-absorbed, you flaunt the role and wear it confidently.

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18): CRANBERRY SAUCE

As an Aquarius, you are an optimistic, clever and unique individual. You are always able to add a little sparkle to any situation, just like cranberry sauce on your full plate of Thanksgiving food. This sauce changes the game for any Thanksgiving taste you’ve had before. Though some may think it's a bit questionable, it is a favorite for many. You are always thinking outside of the box and distinguishing yourself from others.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20): MAC ‘N’ CHEESE

Last but certainly not least, we have you, Pisces. You are creative, compassionate, artistic and imaginative. A comfort food popular across the nation is mac ‘n’ cheese, but there are so many ways to make it your own. People can add extra ingredients or special toppings to make it stick out from other versions. Your personality is warming for the soul, just like a warm bowl of mac ‘n’ cheese! You are always there as a shoulder to lean on and know just what to say to make someone smile. You’re truly the best.
