* StockYuck: In a Thanksgiving episode, Marie Barone experiments with "healthier eating" and presents a centrepiece turkey sculpted from tofu. The rest of the family are moved to almost open rebellion about this. Matters are not helped when the emergency Thanksgiving dinner ordered by Ray Barone - a traditional meat-based one - arrives early and at the wrong house.[[note]] Ray was hoping to get away with consuming just enough at his parents' house to satisfy his mother and keep her happy - then to come home to the real thing.[[/note]]
