Thanksgiving Dinner Costs $38.10

The American Farm Bureau Federation has been calculating the price of Thanksgiving for 21 years. This year, they say the comma-inducing feast will run $38.10 for a table of 10. That's a $1.32 price increase from last year. Data is collected from a shopping list that includes: turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, rolls with butter, peas, cranberries, a relish tray of carrots and celery, pumpkin pie with whipped cream and beverages of coffee and milk. This article from the Voice of Agriculture breaks down the price of each item and also gives a chart of meal price over the years.
