I would think that closer to the holidays you would have someone there who is selling fresh turkeys, or at least getting you on a list so they can butcher you one. Just a thought!

As it is, I am screwing up too many people's traditional idea of Thanksgiving. <br/><br/>My initial thoughts on purchasing location(s) are Belmont Butchery, Fresh Market, and Whole Foods. <br/><br/>I am curious to know if anybody has any opinions about these choices. Also it would be cool to see if there are any farms still selling their birds. I am stuck on turkey. As it is, I am screwing up too many people’s traditional idea of Thanksgiving.

I'm NOT asking as the frequently maligned vegetarian party-pooper. I'm just asking because a really good thanksgiving meal is often highlighted by non-pilgrim tradition dishes. Personally, I'm contemplating a whole fish of some sort (meanwhile, my in-laws will demand spiral cut ham). Are we limited to discussing turkey as the main course?
