It’s Thanksgiving Week on Chewed Up, and Clinton shows up with the one thing Michael Symon never thinks about on a holiday table: a salad. But not just any salad — the salad. The same one Clinton took to The Drew Barrymore Show where Drew declared it her “new favorite.” Clinton, in full Salad Prophet mode, walks Michael and Carla through his roasted delicata squash, toasted pepitas, and pumpkin-spice-kissed croutons — or as the crew insists on calling them, “fat breakers.”

What follows is peak Chewed Up energy: Carla crunches croutons into the mic until Clinton gets strangely excited, Michael goes on a tirade about why restaurants should toss salads for you, and the trio accidentally rename Thanksgiving greens forever. They also drop hard-earned Thanksgiving prep wisdom — thawing your turkey on time, making stock early, mapping out your oven like a battlefield, and why brining is basically a trap if you want good gravy.

The episode finishes with their Monday giveaway: The Frontgate Stay-Chill Bowl from Michael Symon’s Collection, pulled straight from the set and heading to one lucky fan. It’s loud, it’s unhinged, it’s practical, and somehow yes — it’s still about salad.
