Grape salad! The totally controversial entry from the NY Times for regional Thanksgiving specialties! The Internet exploded when the NY Times claimed that grape salad – Thompson grapes, sour cream and brown sugar – was a traditional Thanksgiving dish in Minnesota. Midwesterners of all stripes claimed an anti-midwestern bias by the NY Times. Recast as a modification of a chic French picnic good, it has much more cache!
PS Seriously! Google grape salad!
