7. Green Bean Casserole-- a little dab will do ya, but it is not loaded with sugar, unlike the rest (fat, yes)

I realize the others are "classics" but knowing there is going to be all those desserts later, I just don't get including too much sugary food at dinner. Now plain sweet potatoes with a bit of butter, yeah. But not the ooey gooey candied ones. And cranberries are interesting to me. I'm not sure I've ever eaten them no matter what form they come in. Not that I would not like them, mind you, but it always just seemed an oversight to me.
