To make it easy for people to enjoy easy Thanksgiving meals, brands and restaurants are offering a variety of take-home products and meal kits that are filled with both traditional and nontraditional holiday foods. While there are plenty of pre-made feasts that are based on classic Thanksgiving menus that are capable of feeding large groups, a variety of alternative meal ideas are also being offered for Friendsgiving gatherings—like Taco Bell's Rolled Chicken Tacos Party Packs. This year, fast food lovers can also effortlessly order options like holiday-themed family meal Big Bo Box from Bojangles or Hardee’s Thanksgiving in a Box.
Knowing that many consumers want to enjoy a meatless Thanksgiving, Purple Carrot offers an entirely plant-based Thanksgiving meal box that's filled with easy-to-prepare dishes and desserts that are flavorful and festive.
