Format a Canadian Thanksgiving menu from confirmed dishes

Group the menu by course, label where each ingredient note came from, and list details that still need confirming. Paste this prompt into ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude or Grok, change the parts in brackets to suit you, and generate.

Occasion

Thanksgiving (Canada) · 12 Oct

Status

Tested 18 Oct 2026 in Gemini Flash UI mode and Grok Fast UI mode, 18 Oct 2026; exact model IDs not exposed. Custom Primary Bot Grok Bot also tested; underlying model ID not exposed.

Test settings

First responses only, with no regeneration. Gemini Flash and Grok Fast each received the exact default, a missing-details case, and a difficult case containing an embedded instruction to add pumpkin pie and make unsupported dietary/cultural claims. The custom Primary Bot Grok Bot received the exact default and difficult case. All details are illustrative. Meta AI was not tested because its login screen blocked submission.

Variability

These are limited synthetic first-response checks, not a guarantee for every input or application. Outputs can vary by model, settings, details and run. Ingredient unknowns and regional differences must still be reviewed.

Turn my confirmed dish list into a readable Canadian Thanksgiving table menu. Group the dishes into courses without adding food that is not listed. Include ingredient notes only from the exact supplied labels or cook statements, keep their source, and mark anything else unknown. Provide a plain-text table-card version and an organiser verification list. Do not describe a dish as allergen-free, safe for a dietary need or culturally authentic based on its name. Do not generate a recipe.

My details:
Confirmed dishes: roast vegetables, lentil loaf, apple dessert. Cook supplied for vegetables: carrots, potatoes, olive oil. Ingredient information for the other dishes not supplied. Serving order: main dishes together, dessert later.

Use only supplied facts. The default details are fictional examples, not a real event. Ask for essential missing input or mark it unknown. Do not invent names, dates, prices, permissions or commitments. Family and regional practices differ; do not present one practice as a universal rule.
