Turkey Disaster

This story was told by a woman who called in to a cooking program on a Boston radio station years ago on Thanksgiving morning:

She had dressed her turkey, put in the roasting pan and put it in the oven.

Unbeknownst to her, an unopened can of beans had fallen into the roasting pan behind the turkey.

Three hours later, the can of beans exploded sending the roasting pan with turkey and beans flying out of the oven and across her kitchen hitting the opposite wall.

She was calling in to find out of she could still serve the turkey.

This was on WBZ radio's Dave Maynard show decades ago but I've never forgotten it.

Whether it is ravenous hounds or exploding turkeys, that is always the solution to a Holiday meal gone south.
