Here's What Your State Is Googling About Thanksgiving This Year

Thanksgiving is right around the corner and the internet has questions. Eighteen of them, to be exact. From "how to cook a turkey" to wondering what in the world "turkey bowling" is, lots of people from around the country are turning to Google for answers. Sometimes we can feel silly asking our friends and family questions we think we should know the answer to already, but every state has one question in particular that a ton of other people are also asking. There's really no need to be embarrassed - we're all in this together, especially around the holidays! 

CenturyLinkQuote used Google Trends to look at search volume around Thanksgiving-related terms throughout November 2017. After that, they determined each state’s score based on how much more a state searched that term than the other states. Their findings are pretty interesting, too.
