Happy lasagna day!
It seems that lasagna is the official turkey substitute. All the stores had lasagna noodles on sale this past week. I picked up 4 boxes at Stop & Shop for 79 cents each; that's less than half the regular price! So I wonder, those people who avoid eating turkey on Thanksgiving because they do not wish to actively celebrate the holiday, would they have to avoid lasagna as well?

If i remember correctly, turkey dinners as "tradition" for thanksgiving was started as an advertising campaign (by the Hallmark company?) around World War II.
So is Ronzoni behind the popularization of lasagna for Thanksgiving now?
