Real Housewives of New Jersey Gobblefellas: Meet It Before You Eat It

Oh Tre! You're so cute! Did you see the big Real Housewives of New Jersey Thanksgiving episode this week? There's nothing better than watching those big, Italian families eat. From sausage and peppers to mortadella, it was time to get your grub on. 
But the cutest part was when Teresa and "Juicy" Joe Giudice went to get their turkey at a butcher that would let you "meet it before you eat it." And once they met their potential Thanksgiving bird, they just couldn't be the reason it got its head chopped off. They compromised and bought a $45 bird that was killed the day before. 
Also worth noting, is that Teresa Giudice likes pignoli cookies NOT the sprinkle cookies. Apparently her sister-in-law and most recent rival, Melissa Gorga, made the mistake of bringing sprinkle cookies and Teresa threw them in the trash. So take that! Only that skinny Teresa would throw away perfectly good cookies out of spite! 
And did you see that table of desserts and pastries new Housewive castmember, Kathy Wakile made for Thanksgivng? O.M.G. it was a table filled with tiramisu, mini pies, biscotti and so much more fabulousness you need to rewind the TiVo to get the full effect. That girl must have baked for months leading up to that feast. You go, girl! And call us next year!
