cute teaser! those are all my thanksgiving favorites =)
Wow!! Cool!
Simple one for me, but anyone unfamiliar with these foods would have a difficult time with it I think.
Yes, simple, and cute teaser, however I agree that some might be mislead or confused if unfamiliar with the types of food/tradition

The first 3 clues easily give you the favorite foods of those 3 people. But after that, we are having a hard time. We also figured out that the pronouns give additional clues, but we still can't get to the end. Can anyone tell us what we are missing? Or flat out walk us thru it? Obviously, we are beginners here since everyone else thought it was simple.

Moderately hard, but I am a beginner. I had to look up half of the ingredients in some of the foods. The first two clues were pretty straight-forward, but I started to get confused after that.
To ABCzoo - After you have the 3 giveaways, and the genders worked out the next clue is Ann. And she doesn't like Sweets. After working out the genders you know she is either a pumpkin pie fan - or Turkey. Pumpkin Pie is a dessert and therefore by definition sweet. Therefore she must be Myers, and must like Turkey. Hope this helps!
I managed to do it, but only by guessing, as other people commented it is very difficult, if you are not used the US tradition of Thanksgiving feast, I had heard of Turkey (obviously), cranberry sauce and Pumpkin Pie, but I didn't know what ingredients were involved in "dressing", but I assumed Pie, Cranberry sauce and Turkey wouldn't have celery in them, so I plumped for that to be in "dressing", whatever that is.
