Candied Yams vs. Stuffing: Is Candied Yams The Real Holiday Side Dish Champion?
What’s the latest food fight brewing? Candied yams and holiday stuffing or dressing, has enjoyed a long but friendly feud on whose the most popular when it comes to side dishes on your holiday table. For years stuffing has enjoyed the high status position on most holiday tables. Sitting proudly beside or in the turkey centerpiece. After all any respectable turkey would only appear half dressed without a piping hot dressing to go along with it.
The Latest Polls Speak For Themselves
But as we go into a New Year a worthy opponent is slowly taking the lead from the traditional holiday side dish champion. In fact, according to the last poll by a reputable website candied yams is now the favorite holiday side dish by it's readers over stuffing by a margin of two to one. I found this hard to believe at first glance, so I did a little independent research on my own by scouring websites, polling readers on my own blogs and doing an audit on the many article directories.
Results of My Personal Research
After this exhaustive research it seems candied yams has more articles post, more reader page views, more search queries and more recipes than stuffing. As shocking as it may first sound, given the traditional prestige stuffing has had for so long, this represents a paradigm shift in people's eating habits. With more people watching their diets, their weight and their health in general, stuffing is not as popular now as it was in the past. Less people find it as appealing because of the high calorie content, which can be as high as 300 calories when prepared in the traditional way, with traditional ingredients. In addition, stuffing has the dubious reputation of giving some people the drowsies after eating.
The Story Behind The Surprising Results
Contrast that with the candied yam recipe, this dish seems to attract the new generation of eaters more. One because of the many ways you can prepare this dish. You can prepare it in the traditional manner, with loads of sugar, butter, cinnamon or nutmeg. Or like many health enthusiast use organic honey, and orange juice instead of sugar. You can also substitute margarine or yogurt for butter. You can choose either method of preparation or do something in between as many people choose to do.
The Secret Health Advantage
Another reason people have chosen yams as their favorite side dish over stuffing is the health advantage. Yams and sweet potatoes are rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, potassium and fiber. In addition, because of the wonders of shipping, distribution and storage yams they’re available year around now., resulting in increased consumption. All these benefits along with the taste has made candied yams the favorite holiday side dish.

How can I view the IVs on a level 1 Pokemon on Pokemon Diamond?
I think this is how:
Use rare candies until it's level 100 and use the calculator.
Battle a friend at the level 100 setting.
Battle Tower?
I use rare candies but I don't save. I try to get them to the mid 30's as it at least gives a general number.
