这集讲到感恩节大餐, 就来聊聊美国感恩节的食物吧! 其实就跟本集剧情一样, 感恩节大餐的细节是家家不一样, 我曾经被美国同学邀请去他的家乡过感恩节, 在拜访的三天内我吃了三家不同的火鸡大餐--同学男友家/男友奶奶家/同学自己家, 真的是三家火鸡味道都不一样! 单就火鸡来说是奶奶家最好吃, 我同学家最好吃的则是green been casserole. 同学男友家就没有什麽特别让我有印象的了..... 基本上每户人家一定会有的东西是火鸡/stuffing(塞在火鸡内的馅料)/蔓越莓酱, 有些人不爱吃火鸡,可能会用火腿(ham)代替, 但火鸡还是最最最主流的. 此外很常见的是蕃薯/南瓜派/Green been casserole. Green been casserole我不知道要怎麽翻译, 是用像四季豆一样的绿色豆子+蘑菇酱+炸洋葱丝去烤的. 剧情中让Monica忙翻天的各色马铃薯泥,我反而没有实际在感恩节中遇到过, 不过我是住在Ohio,属於中西部,跟东岸也许有不一样的传统? 连台湾这个小岛都有南北习俗差异了, 美国本土就跨了四个时区,各地传统不一样很正常. 马铃薯泥是美国很家常的菜肴,平常就会吃了, 我在感恩节看到的多半是蕃薯, 不过蕃薯不是做成泥,而是切块加糖浆或棉花糖一起烤, 有一集的感恩节大餐就有演到Rachel把棉花糖塞进Monica鼻孔里抗议Monica太龟毛-- 因为Monica规定棉花糖一定要摆成同心圆XD 我吃不习惯美式作法,太甜了, 蕃薯本来就会甜,再加糖浆棉花糖那真的是甜到爆表! 我到美国生活後口味有渐渐变重, 很多刚来时入不了口的爆甜爆咸食物,我都渐渐能接受了, 但都过了十个感恩节了,我还是吃不惯爆甜蕃薯@@ 蔓越莓酱和南瓜派我也吃不惯,也不是说不好吃,就是觉得味道不习惯. 但是感恩节大餐的点心往往不会只有南瓜派一种, 苹果派核桃派都满常见的, 我就超爱苹果派!!! 说到苹果派,又要回去称赞一下我同学男友的奶奶, 奶奶的火鸡很好吃,苹果派也很赞!! (耳边突然响起Joey用色色口吻说"Grandma's Turkey and Apple Pie~~~~~"XDDDD) 除了苹果派, 感恩节大餐最吸引我的是stuffing和Green bean casserole. 接着来聊"cider"这种让我很困惑的饮料. 我喝过的cider都是苹果+肉桂的纯果汁,没有酒精成分, 而且大部分都是喝热的, 不过也有很多人都说cider就是苹果酒. 我是完全不喝酒的人,一点酒精都不沾, 跟酒有关的饮料我全不懂, 所以我上了维基百科查, 发现cider在美国可以指苹果酒(hard cider),又可以是指无酒精的苹果汁(cider), 在英国爱尔兰等地cider专指苹果酒. 在美国只要看到超市摆出一大堆两加仑瓶装的无酒精cider,就知道秋天来了. 美国传统的感恩节模式是这样: 女生在厨房里忙感恩节大餐, 男生在客厅看美式足球比赛(感恩节那天一定会有美式足球!) 女生忙大餐的空档可能会来客厅跟男生抢电视看花车游行, 然後在下午四点或四点半开动, 要由一家之主负责切火鸡. ※ 引述《samchiu (闲祭秋)》之铭言： : 109- Part 04 : [Scene: Monica and Rachel's, Monica is cooking Thanksgiving dinner. : Chandler is standing in the doorway, : not wanting to participate in the festivities.] : Monica: Mmm, looking good.

An 80-foot inflatable dog let loose over the city. : How often does that happen? : Phoebe: Almost never. : Monica: Got the keys? or Got the keys! : Rachel: Ok. : (Everyone leaves the apartment.) --
