While Thanksgiving has some weighted and extremely important history in this country — which is always important to hold space for and remember — for many of us, the holiday is rooted in family tradition. In my family, for example, we make sure to go around the table and share what we’re thankful for (no matter how many eaters show up each year) before anyone touches a morsel of the food. And, speaking of food, there hasn’t been much change to my family’s Thanksgiving menu for decades — despite my cheffy attempts to reinvent the classics.

So, I think I speak for Turkey Day attendees all around when I say that there are some recipes, tools, and ingredients integral to making the beloved meal that might feel a little outdated in other settings. But hey, just like a box of cake mix, sometimes the good ‘ol tried-and-true essentials you’d find in Grandma’s pantry that just hit different. One of the hardest Thanksgiving dishes to DIY is stuffing. Delicious and extra holiday-specific, there’s a reason why loads of Americans depend on Stove Top for no-brainer, totally scrumptious stuffing that requires a mere stir of the pot (or microwave). And, as it turns out, the family-loved brand has a new product on the market this year, one that’s not edible, but just as crucial to a successful Turkey Day as stuffing itself: the new Stuffing Thanksgiving Pants.

What? Why? How? Well, allow me to explain. These cozy, comfy festive pants have a special feature that makes the eating and digesting of your holiday meal pleasant and relaxed (even if Uncle Joe is talking politics, again). The jogger-style pants are constructed from super-soft red fleece and topped with an uber-stretchy, stuffing-themed waistband that’s flexible and forgiving, no matter how many servings you find yourself reaching for this year. (It’s made with “360 stuffin’-stretch technology,” after all.)

Unlike all the years past, when (if you’re anything like me) you found yourself 30 mins into the meal, unbuttoning your pants and wishing the dining room chairs could recline, you’ll be ready for dessert without even needing a breather. Plus, they’ve got a handy side pocket if you wanted to sneak a couple dinner rolls for the ride home.

So, yes, this is a genius invention that we all need. I mean, what’s better than snuggling into a cozy pair of pants, eating to your hearts content, and having zero regrets? Plus, with fast Amazon shipping, you can still get them before the big day if you order ASAP. Just picture your entire extended family post-cleanup, lounging and digesting together in matching pants. Now there’s a holiday card idea in the making!
