Talk about a side hustle.
Turkey may be the main attraction at the Thanksgiving table, but side dishes are typically what have people going back for seconds.
However, not everyone opts for the same add-ons — and where you live might determine which is your favorite.
A new report by Online-Casinos.com has revealed each state’s favorite side dish — and prepare to be shocked by some tastes in two Northeast states.
Connecticut and Massachusetts have the most bizarre outlier as their favorite side dish: creamed spinach.
They’re not the only states with untraditional side dishes of choice.
Alabama and Indiana go crazy over deviled egg appetizers, while people in Wyoming complete their Thanksgiving with a bowl of tart, gelatinous cranberry sauce.
Corn casserole, on the other hand, was the favorite among respondents in Kentucky and West Virginia.
Meanwhile, mashed potatoes — perhaps the most traditional side dish — was voted favorite in 14 states.
Alaska, California, Colorado, Delaware, Idaho, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah and Wisconsin have all crowned the fluffy, buttery form of potatoes as their favorite.
Mashed potatoes’ strongest competitor is stuffing, of course, taking the top spot for 12 states.
Arizona, Hawaii, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, New Jersey, Vermont, Virginia and Washington have all put the dish on top — whether they call it stuffing or dressing.
Macaroni and cheese is a comfort classic that has made its way to the Thanksgiving table, voted a favorite in eight states: Arkansas, Florida, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas.
The classic green bean casserole can’t be forgotten. The dish is most popular in six states: Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
Then there’s sweet potato casserole, voted the top side in Georgia, Kansas and Mississippi.
When it comes to dessert, everyone can agree that pie is the dessert of Thanksgiving. The only thing that differs is what kind of pie people prefer to put on their table.
Though pumpkin pie is the clear favorite, according to 38 states.
However, some states preferred apple pie, such as Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Nebraska, Rhode Island, Tennessee and Vermont.
Others preferred pecan pie, including Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana and Texas.
