I've always been satisfied to watch others eat it from a safe distance...

I like the canned, whole berry sauce, but my wife found a recipe for cranberry chutney and that has taken its place.

I prefer ocean spray plain cranberry jelly out of the can. I find the texture of the cranberries in other versions too chewy and conflicts with cornbread dressing. To each his own I guess

I'm not a cranberry fan, the sweet and savory just doesn't ring my chimes. My wife makes a fresh cranberry, frozen dark cherries, orange zest and pieces, then brandy. To me it's better on vanilla ice cream than turkey.

wife got a cranberry sauce from Walmart from the produce section in a plastic tub that was amazing. We also had a jar of cranberry pepper jelly likewise excellent

It’s a must have. I always bring a can to family dinners in case one of my heathen relatives fails to have it.

I always use hot pepper jelly instead of cranberry jelly.
