11. I think it is utter nonsense that you shouldn't bake the stuffing inside the bird.

Okay, so maybe if you leave the stuffing inside for several hours, bad things could happen, sort of like the guy who left the spaghetti (or whatever it was) on the counter for five days then ate it, but pretty much as soon as the turkey comes out of the oven you take the stuffing out. Meanwhile, by being cooked inside it's absorbed all of the wonderful juices there, and is far more flavorful than done in a casserole dish. I'm all for the flavor.
