How to Make Your Thanksgiving Dinner Free of Arguments and Fights
It’s very rare to attend a Thanksgiving dinner with a large group of family and friends and some kind of argument occur. There’s always someone who wants to prove a point, give their opinion, or challenge a friendly comment.
Arguments around the table are as common as turkey and stuffing come Thanksgiving. However, there’s a company that thinks it might have the solution to this problem. They make gravy infused with THC.
While dosing people without their knowledge is very dangerous and illegal, Kiva Confections hopes consenting consumers will use the gravy to take the edge off this holiday season.
Its ad says, “With increasing social, political, and cultural divisiveness driving apart families and friends. Kiva Cannabis-Infused Gravy is back to unite us all around the dinner table.” “Turkey, mashed potatoes, awkward conversation, you can drown them all in the flavors of rosemary, thyme, and oregano, and 10MG of THC.”
The company promises that “In just under 15 minutes you’ll start feeling the effects, so you can sit back, relax, and let the holiday cheer wash over you.”
According to Kiva Confections, its “cutting-edge technology” allows the THC to absorb quickly “in a groundbreaking 2 to 15 minutes.” This is likely fast enough to chill you out before your drunk uncle gives his unique spin on the current political situation.
It was first sold in 2019 and before its return ahead of last year’s holiday season. The $5 ground gravy powder is being sold at dispensaries, “while limited supplies last.”
I haven’t tried this so I am not recommending or endorsing this. If your family is one that may benefit from such things, have at it.
The discussion we had on the show was mostly “no way my family would ever do that.” However, there was one or two callers who said they would love to see what kind of effect it would have on their family’s Thanksgiving.

5 Unique and Unusual Thanksgiving Traditions to Consider
Turkey Toss
Some people gather to challenge the limits of distance and altitude by launching frozen turkeys. In fact, a group of college students in Indiana took this to the next level in the early 2000s. They came up with the plan of dressing a frozen turkey in a onesie, securing it to a chain, saturating it with lighter fluid, igniting it, and then flinging it across a football field.

Second Wind Walks
Thanksgiving feasts are often so filling that many families take a post-dinner stroll to make room for dessert. It’s like taking the “I work out so I can eat” mantra to a whole new level. Of course, packing up leftovers for later is an option. But the post-feast walk is a fun tradition for those who can’t resist the temptation of that pumpkin pie.

Thanksgiving Roasting
A family drew inspiration from the typical Thanksgiving customs and introduced their own unique tradition. As an X user shared, their kid initiated a comical Thanksgiving tradition by “roasting” everyone at the table. The idea was that since they roast a turkey, why not extend the roasting to the family members too. Seriously, what could possibly go wrong?
