Minnesota’s Top Go-Tos For Late Night Thanksgiving Cravings

On Thursday most people will be gathered together to eat way too much food and to give thanks for the good things in their lives.

It's a day filled with food but at some point at the end of the day, you're going to get a big hungry again. Yes, even though you've already had enough calories for the day in one meal. It's fine, it's a holiday!

Minnesotan's Favorite Spot for a Late-Night Snack on Thanksgiving

Now imagine this, your family has finished eating the big Thanksgiving meal, you've had your pie, and maybe you've been hanging out watching the Turkey Day football game.

You start to get a little hungry again, or 'peckish' as my husband would say, but you're not so sure you want to have MORE turkey and mashed potatoes. You want something a little different. This is when you need to make a stop at Minnesota's favorite late-night snack spots.

Hop in your car if you haven't indulged in your favorite alcoholic beverages or order delivery from the two spots that tied for first according to this survey from PlayStar: McDonald's and Taco Bell!

Apparently, Minnesotans really love a Big Mac or Crunchwrap as their Thanksgiving late-night snack.

I definitely like the idea of having something different to eat since you might be sick of turkey already, but for me personally, I might want to venture even further and go for some sushi, what about you?
