Two traditions, both revered by their respective peoples on either side of the Atlantic – but which will win out when put to the test by Matt Turner and Chris Richards?
Okay, so the judges are biased – but with both United States internationals now approaching their respective third festive seasons in England, is there any chance that their verdict could spring a surprise?
Premier League Productions’ ‘Put it on a Plate’ video saw turkey go head-to-head with beef; mac and cheese go tête-à-tête with cauliflower cheese; sweet potato tackle the roast potato; and more culinary confrontations.
Watch below to discover the winners.
And what, ultimately, were both players thankful for, with today marking Thanksgiving?
Turner said: “I’m thankful for my family, first and foremost, especially my wife and my kids’ health and happiness.
I’m grateful for the career opportunity I have now, being at Crystal Palace, and being with Chris every day has been really nice – I’ve so much to be grateful for in my life.”
Richards added: “Friends and family mean the world to me. Being so far away from home, it’s always good to speak to them.
“Having Matt come to Crystal Palace has been nice because having somebody from the same kind of background, the same kind of experiences, the same references, has been amazing.
“Also, community: having the people around you, whether it’s the people at Palace or in your neighbourhood. They kind of keep you going every day, so it’s good to have a community around you – I think that’s what Thanksgiving is all about.”
