Ezekiel Diet Note: For the last several Thanksgiving meals we’ve used Whole Foods catering for organic turkey and sides for 4, just $149.  I just ordered last week. I can’t find the $149 organic turkey and sides on their site. They must of sold the limit. But, everything is still available a la cart. I pick it up between 9 AM and 10 AM TG day, grab a couple pies and rolls and we’re done. I’ve never been a fan of turkey, but the Whole Foods turkey is very tasty. You pick it cold and reheat it when needed. The WF standard turkey meal (non-organic) is just $99 for 4.
