Yesterday, a radio personality asked if stuffing is really the most popular Thanksgiving side dish, as surveys claim. He wondered, if stuffing is so popular, why you don't typically see people eating it randomly in April.
I think for most people, it's an out-of-sight, out-of-mind issue. Candy corn isn't usually promoted heavily outside of Halloween, and stuffing isn't usually promoted heavily outside of Thanksgiving. I've always thought bread stuffing is tasty, but I don't buy it or even think about it unless I see a prominent display of it at Dierbergs. I imagine most people think similarly.
