Travis Kelce Shares Which Thanksgiving Side Dish He Would Eliminate

Thanksgiving often centers on football and a feast brimming with food, but Travis Kelce isnt afraid to call out the dish hed happily see vanish from the table. Naturally, the conversation took a humorous turn, with jokes and spontaneous definitions flying around.

Kelces Least Favorite Holiday Side

During a podcast, a fan asked Travis which classic side he would remove permanently: stuffing, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, or dessert. After considering his options, Travis revealed that stuffing would be the first to go.

I would probably say stuffing, he admitted, then emphasized, Im just not a stuffing guy not a stuffing or dressing guy, however you want to call it.

Before choosing stuffing, Travis briefly entertained the idea of giving up mac and cheese, but that was immediately dismissed. He cannot go without his cheesy comfort food. If mac and cheese were removed, he said hed replace it with cheesy potatoes or potatoes au gratinanything rich and creamy. The cheesy element is crucial, especially for his signature mini Thanksgiving sandwich on a Hawaiian roll.

Youre going to have macaroni and cheese. I need something cheesy, so the potato has got to be cheesy. If were taking the mac and cheese out, weve got to go with cheesy potatoes. Potatoes au gratin. There you go. Im in on any of that cheesy potato-ness. I just need something cheesy. I need to make a sandwich with my Hawaiian roll, and I need cheese on that sandwich.

The Great Stuffing vs. Dressing Debate

The Kelce brothers then playfully debated whether stuffing and dressing are actually different. Jason Kelce questioned the distinction, leading the brothers to hash out the technical details. They concluded that stuffing is cooked inside the turkey, while dressing is prepared separately.

Stuffing is a bread mixture while inside the cavity of the poultry, while dressing is a similar mixture, cooked separately, Travis clarified.

Even amidst all the jokes, Travis was firm that cheesy sides remain, while stuffing is out. Jason didnt weigh in on removing stuffing but contributed his trademark humor, creating the classic Kelce sibling banter fans enjoy.
