A question: Do you say "dressing" or "stuffing"? And where are you from?
Milton Ramirez, Greg GuitarBuster, Mona Nomura and 6 other people liked this
Well, they're different things, too me.
- Anika
Stuffing. Seattle.
- Rochelle
Stuffing comes in a box. Dressing is what we have on Thanksgiving; it's made with cornbread and celery and doesn't go inside the turkey. I'm from Georgia. :)
- Laura B.
Stuffing. I got it from my mom who grew up in Massachusetts.
- Michelle Martinez
We say dressing. My family's from Louisiana.
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
Akiva says it's only stuffing if it's baked in the bird. Otherwise, it's dressing. He's from Texas.
- Rochelle
From Missouri: We say both and were ignorant of the difference.
- SAM
Yeah, dressing and stuffing are separate entities to me too. Stuffing is stuffed inside. Dressing dresses the outside. EDIT: from UK.
- Mark H
Stuffing. Currently in Nevada. Going back to Cali in a couple of months. My immediate family is/was not from this country, so when they started celebrating Thanksgiving after they came to California, they heard stuffing.
- Helen Sventitsky
Dressing - Texas
- Jeremy
I have a theory that the difference is regional. I suspect the dislike of the word "stuffing" is a Bible Belt thing.
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
Harvey, I agree with this theory. I've been in Seattle for nearly 28 years and have never once heard someone native to here call it dressing.
- Rochelle
As far as I can remember, my family has always called it stuffing. We're New York Jews.
- josh neff, Fun Dip of FF
Stuffing - dressing is something you do with your clothes to cover yourself up (from UK)
- WorldofHiglet
I wonder if us southerners think "stuffing" has a sexual connotation. :)
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
you americans are crazy. stuffing is for the inside of a poultry, dressing is some sort of gravy or sauce for on top of something (eg a salad)
- Snipergirl
Well, Snipergirl, there's dressing, and then there's dressing.
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
A salad is considered dressing? Hmm. I don't think I've ever heard (that is,in Seattle) any *food* ever called dressing. Dressing is what you do with clothes in the morning and that's about it.
- Rochelle
@rochelles no a salad dressing is what you put on salad
- Snipergirl
I think you mean SAUCE.
- Rochelle
Snipergirl salad dressing is different from dressing (mush made from cornbread).
- Anika
When I put my clothes on, it's dressing. When I stuff the turkey, it's stuffing. Oh,and I'm a Midwestener. My mom used to make oyster stuffing for Thanksgiving. So good.
- Sarah June
And even here in the States, depending on region, salad dressing can mean different things. Here in CA it means like ranch, Italian, Thousand Island, but in the midwest, it's some mayonnaise mixture made with relish that people put on sandwiches.
- Anika
stuffing
- VAL D.
Long Island ,NY
- VAL D.
I stuff a bird. Mind you, being from England, that certainly has more than one meaning.
- Ian May
Stuffing. We get it out of a box, but don't cook it inside the turkey (personally, I don't even eat it anyway). I'm familiar with the term dressing, but have never used it in this particular situation. I'm from Massachusetts.
- PENGUIN: MAJOR CAPS LOCK
@faboomama @rochelles @ha3rvey while I do admit to understanding that this is a conversation about American English only, I would probably alert you to the fact that most people in the world who speak English actually speak British English or a close variant of it (including Canadians funnily enough)- thus to many people outside the US, dressing is a perfectly valid term for what you put on salad, and is never used to denote your cornbread thingy
- Snipergirl
though i must admit that the cornbread thingy sounds OM NOM NOM NOM
- Snipergirl
To be even more pedantic, not all dressings/stuffings have cornbread. :)
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
stuffing here as well (Washington), though I do here dressing now and then. And in my circles, we rarely have cornbread stuffing, just to be difficult. ;)
- holly
Which is why they're different words to me. Dressing is made with cornbread (or any bread really), but stuffing is mostly meat-based and goes inside the bird.
- Anika
They are two different things, like Anika said, but mostly, I eat cornbread dressing. Mmmm. With cranberry sauce on the side. Oh and turkey and mashed potatoes and gravy and green beans and...
- Carmen
Just to blow my own horn, I made a vegetarian Thanksgiving dinner with roasted acorn squash with a chestnut and craisin stuffing and mushroom gravy. It was SO GOOD.
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
As someone in the midwest, I don't think I've ever called the stuff I put on sandwiches dressing. I wonder where they eat that stuff. Hmmmm. I do call anything I put on a salad, salad dressing.
- Sarah June
Actually, I was thinking about that, most of my family who are from the south originally, but live in the midwest now, call *any* spread to put on sandwiches "salad dressing". I wonder if that's old Southern thing.
- Anika
Maybe. The concoction sounds interesting. :-) I'm kind of plain person when it comes to sandwiches. Usually just mayo. And Ha3rvey, that sounds wonderful.
- Sarah June
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... It is gagalicious.
- Anika
Stuffing, because eating it makes me feel stuffed.
- John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Anika, I thought we were friends. I can't believe you introduced Miracle Whip into one of my food threads. *BLOCKED*
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
*shuddder* not Miracle Whip, I think they have the name trademarked. No, this: http://friendfeed.com/fabooma...
- Anika
I thought I remembered a sandwich spread under the Miracle Whip brand name. My google-fu fails me right now, though.
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
Ha3rvey, I love you. However, as I have said before, I am a Miracle Whip kind of girl. :P That said, the jar of MW in my kitchen does call itself "dressing," but not "salad dressing." When I was in the UK, I put "salad cream" on my sandwiches.
- Laura B.
Okay, 'salad cream' just gives me the heebie-jeebies. LOL
- Anika
Salad cream: http://www.heinzsaladcream.co.uk/ Not exactly like Miracle Whip, but it will do in a pinch.
- Laura B.
Stuffing. New England.
- Sarah is Novembery
from iPhone
we use both.
- Nathalie, Dreamer of FF
Stuffing, I'm from all over the US (mom & dad are too, although the recipe is southern), but we always put it in the bird, so stuffing fits. And it's not meat-based - it's Wonder bread based, with bacon, celery, and poultry seasoning - yummy. In New Orleans, when they ask if you want your po boy dressed, they mean, do you want lettuce, tomato, mayo, etc., which makes sense since the po boy would be almost naked without it.
- Cassandra
Like Rochelle said, we call it stuffing in Seattle and I was born and raised here. My husband is from MN and he calls it dressing. To me, dressing is for salad. Or what you do when you put on clothes. ;-)
- Annie Anderson
Stuffing. Rural southeastern Ohio
- Michael Hocter
It's dressing. It's only stuffing when it's inside the bird. (Texas)

Stuffing even if it never enters the bird. Baltimore. And in B'more you gotta have sauerkraut with turkey.
- m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
Gimme the sauerkraft. Stuff the turkey.
- Ian May
I say stuffing, but that's my Brooklyn roots. Actually, I say both since dressing is something completely different: Salad sauce, or stuffing that didn't actually get stuffed anywhere. (don't like dressing)
- Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF
STUFFING!

I say stuffing regardless of whether it was cooked in the bird.

You'd have to repost it to get it on Best of Day...

Provocative Question: Is Yahoo! best of breed at anything?
Jason Wehmhoener, Stephen Mack, Brodie Beta and Maxamad liked this
E.g. I used to think my.yahoo was good, but they went and messed it up so switched to iGoogle. At one time Yahoo! Groups was good, but it's not been updated in years.
- Cristo
As an account for Y! Pipes, Flickr, and Delicious.
- Maxamad
But is Flickr best of breed, or is SmugMug? Is Delicious more useful than FriendFeed? BTW, it's interesting that most of the tech you mentioned is acquired.
- Cristo
What Mohamed said. Also useful are YUI and YQL (which were not acquired). Flickr is different than SmugMug, and I think it's "best of breed" for social networking around photography.
- Jason Wehmhoener
You could certainly debate whether YUI or YQL are "best of breed", but they are high quality code. Also, pipes was in-house.
- Jason Wehmhoener
Sometimes ,I find yahoo answers useful but best of breed?
- ashish
Jason, I guess I was thinking of consumer apps. I agree Flickr is best at social photo, but I'm not sure that will survive. Too many people using Facebook now, and the prosumers and pros use SmugMug.
- Cristo
Flickr certainly has plenty of users, but AFAIK Yahoo has never made a profit from it. I used to wonder if Yahoo would survive, but they do still sell a lot of ads. I guess Yahoo Frontpage is "best of breed" as it is the highest trafficked page on the internet. That will likely keep them floating at least as long as AOL.
- Jason Wehmhoener
ashish, I don't trust the answers on Yahoo! Answers, but maybe that's not fair because I don't trust any of the answer sites.
- Cristo
As far as I'm concerned now, Yahoo! is AOL. They could merge and it would still be the same. The only difference is I actually use AIM, mostly because it's built into iChat.
- Cristo
Yeah. shrug.
- Jason Wehmhoener
YUI is awesome. Y! Pipes is also awesome. YQL is awesome, but I haven't tried it yet. None were acquired. Y! Answers is sometimes useful/amusing.
- Maxamad
YUI, Y! Pipes, and YQL are all frameworks right? They're not consumer facing. Sorry, I should have been more specific in my original post.
- Cristo
Yahoo is like a person stuck in quicksand !
- ashish
It always frustrated me when I worked there that the business acumen does not live up to the technical ability.
- Jason Wehmhoener
But hey, you know, those guys were in a dorm room when the whole thing started. What a ride, eh?
- Jason Wehmhoener
Well, they survived and prospered for 15+ years in a fast moving industry. I give them lots of credit for that. I once had an interviewer from Frontline ask me on camera why they were so successful and our startup was struggling in '94. Ouch. :)
- Cristo
There's all that other pretty new stuff like meme.yahoo.com omg.yahoo.com and others, but I really don't care at all for them
- Maxamad
ouch! in '94 I was still in the process of dropping out of my freshman year in college.
- Jason Wehmhoener
We somewhat wildly underestimated the timeframe for widespread wireless infrastructure and devices. ;)
- Cristo
'94 I was turning 1 year old.
- Maxamad
Ah, yes, that would have been painful, but admirably optimistic!

Yahoo Finance.
- Mike Nencetti
Yahoo Finance is a pretty good site. And for many years it was best of breed. Is it still? finance.google.com? bloomberg.com?
- Jason Wehmhoener
I use Google and Bloomberg, but I always check other sources if I'm trading.
- Cristo
I've been playing with thinkorswim.com recently, kind of interesting: https://www.thinkorswim.com/tos...

Here's a brochure for the our mobile service in '94: http://friendfeed.com/cristob...

- Mike Chelen

"Do actors ever feel truly secure in their chosen profession? In the past year, Olivia Williams has spent six months filming the Joss Whedon sci-fi TV series Dollhouse, shot a movie in Berlin with Roman Polanski, played Ian Dury's wife in the upcoming biopic Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll and taken a supporting role in Nick Hornby's adaptation of Lynn Barber's memoir, An Education – as tasty and varied a body of work as any actor could ask for. Yet, this very morning, the 41-year-old actress tells me, she considered once again whether she shouldn't have followed in her parents' and older sister's footsteps and become a barrister. "But then my barrister friends are all sufficiently neurotic and barking-mad to make me realise that one isn't the sensible choice over the other," she laughs. In fact, Williams might well have been hectoring juries today had serendipity (in the shape of Kevin Costner) not diverted the then-28-year-old, broke and trudging through auditions for body-cream ads, from...

This would be really nice in some locations because there is no need for a separate box with power, but I'm a little skeptical that it would result in as good quality. Also, no IR support.

The Amazon reviews are pretty telling. When it works, people love it. But it doesn't always work.

I would think that how well these work is a function of the length of the cable run and quality of cabling, since it doesn't appear that these are powered in any way.

I imagine Facebook is putting their resources in the ports their user base is demanding.

Kind of sounds like Joe would rather make the web app work better and that would be more platform agnostic though its pretty hard to do a really exceptional mobile experience through a browser.
