What is it about green bean casserole that so enthralls Americans at Thanksgiving?

I just don't get it.

Part of the mystique is that it's a food we usually only get once a year. For good or ill, it is linked with family get-togethers and the whole holiday mishegas.

For me personally, I love the combination of the creamy mushroom soup base and the starchy fullness of the beans, with a hint of crunchiness from the onions. I didn't have any this year (we had dim sum for Thanksgiving), and I definitely missed it.

Dim sum is ALWAYS appropriate.
