Default Terminology: stuffing vs. dressing

>I think it's a regional thing. Here in the South I hear it called
>dressing, but other regions and on tv it's referred to as stuffing.


It's dressing out West-- at least in Oregon/Idaho where I grew up.
"Stuffing" was something you saw on TV that came in a box. One might
order "turkey and dressing" at a resturaunt but never "turkey and
stuffing."

We're having dressing on Thursday, even though we're in Minnesota now.
