President Obama may have pardoned a turkey yesterday, but that doesn't mean every bird is safe from his dinner table. The White House has issued a press release detailing the massive spread President Obama and his family will be enjoying this Thanksgiving, and the turkey made the cut.

In addition to a thyme-roasted turkey, the Obama family will chow on a menu that includes honey-baked ham, oyster stuffing, green bean casserole, and mashed potatoes. The dessert spread will feature no less than six kinds of pie, including apple, cherry, pumpkin, and pecan.
