With one of the biggest holidays coming up, Campbell’s held their annual report to find out each state’s favorite side dish for Thanksgiving.

In 2024, 56% of adults preferred eating side dishes over turkey at Thanksgiving. According to Campbell’s that number has gone up to 63% in 2025.

After surveying 5,000 adults across the United States, mashed potatoes were the top side dish for Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, New Mexico, Utah, and Washington.

Florida and New York’s favorite side was Mac & Cheese.

For the majority of the country, including Colorado, the top side dish is stuffing.

According to Campbell’s, 66% of people enjoy cooking the side more than the turkey and 85% of people agree that leftovers are one of the best parts of Thanksgiving.
