Turkey's Gone Take-Out 🦃🥧

The countdown is on. Thanksgiving is less than a month away.

While the foodie-focused holiday sparks joy in many, it can also strike fear into the hearts of the culinarily challenged. Thankfully, in the age of Door Dash, Instacart and some fancy food engineering, you can pretty much purchase the entire Thanksgiving experience, transforming the holiday into a mash-up of nostalgia, novelty and low-effort indulgence. Think deep-fried turkey sandwiches, stuffing-flavored popcorn and pies that taste like soda.

Here are some tasty ways to serve gratitude to go:

Crumbl Dirty Soda Pumpkin Patch

If you prefer your pumpkin in liquid form, Crumbl’s take on the dirty-soda craze gets the PSL treatment with soda water, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, pumpkin pie sauce and a cinnamon stick. It’s autumn in a cup.

Aura Bora Green Bean Casserole

We’re manifesting a comeback for Aura Bora’s cult-favorite Thanksgiving Drop, a sparkling water inspired by green bean casserole.

Sprite Winter Spiced Cranberry

The cranberry sauce of sodas. Sprite’s limited-edition flavor blends tangy cranberry and warm spices for a fizzy nod to the holiday table.

Popeye’s Cajun Turkey

Forget thawing. Popeyes’ pre-cooked Cajun-spiced turkey ships straight to your door for a stress-free, deep-fried dinner. Available for pre-order nationwide while supplies last (and they do run out). $54.99 for pickup at your local store or $99 delivered.

Dubai Chocolate Turkey

The internet’s obsession with Dubai chocolate has gone off the rails. Reynolds Wrap’s viral recipe coats turkey in pistachio cream, kataifi pastry and edible gold. It’s extra. It’s shiny. It’s the influencer of Thanksgiving dinner.

Tyson Turkey Nuggets

Well, they’re not turkey exactly, but they’re giving turkey, which is what matters. Tyson’s limited-edition turkey-shaped nuggets (made with 100% white meat chicken) cook in minutes. Just add gravy and call it dinner.

Cup Noodles Turkey Dinner

The college-dorm Thanksgiving we didn’t know we needed. Cup Noodles’ latest drop simmers turkey broth, sweet corn, cranberry bursts and green beans into one steaming, semi-chaotic bite.

Apple Pie Kraft Mac & Cheese

Kraft merged mac and cheese with apple pie, and somehow it works. Sweet, savory and slightly unhinged, the ultimate potluck wildcard.

Keogh’s Roast Turkey & Secret Stuffing Chips

Ireland’s favorite holiday chips taste like an entire meal in one crunch, seasoned with herbs fresh from the Keogh family garden.

Trader Joe’s Thanksgiving Stuffing Popcorn

Stuffing meets snack time. TJ’s butterfly-style popcorn is dusted with sage, thyme, parsley and celery seed. It’s your aunt’s recipe, in snack form.

‍Compartés Cornbread Chocolate Bar

Cornbread meets cocoa. Compartés folds real sweet corn and cornbread crumbs into creamy chocolate for a side that doubles as dessert.

Taco Bell Baja Blast Pie

Launching nationwide Nov. 6, this neon dessert riffs on the chain’s cult soda with a graham crust and limey custard filling. Think key lime pie’s chaotic cousin who parties too hard.

Oreo Thanksgiving Dinner Collection

This is a new one. Six limited-edition flavors: Cranberry Sauce, Pumpkin Pie, Turkey & Stuffing, Creamed Corn, Sweet Potato and Caramel Apple Pie, only available on Oreo’s website. A meal in a box.

Salt & Straw Thanksgiving Pack

A five-scoop feast that turns into dessert: Parker House Rolls with Salted Buttercream, Maple Koginut Squash with Pomegranate, Cranberry Orange Sorbet, Turkey Stuffing & Cranberry Sauce and Pumpkin Pie Tiramisu. You’ll be thankful for freezers.

Baskin Robbins Ice Cream Turkey Cake

Still the ultimate conversation starter: a turkey-shaped ice cream cake with sugar-cone drumsticks. Customize your flavor, earn your applause.

Subway Festive Feast

Meet the sandwich equivalent of leftovers, minus the family drama. Subway stacks turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce for a fresh twist on Thanksgiving, plus the TurHamKen, its Turducken-style special, dropping nationwide on Nov. 13.

Arby’s Deep Fried Turkey Gobbler

For fried turkey fans, Arby’s has gotchu. The Deep Fried Turkey Gobbler, a limited-time offering, has deep-fried turkey, crispy onions, Swiss cheese and everything seasoning on brioche. It’s the drive-thru dinner that doesn’t miss.

Bottom line: the Thanksgiving playbook is looking less Norman Rockwell, more FoodTok fever dream. Pass the Oreos and cue the gratitude.
