It just isn’t Thanksgiving or Christmas at my house without this variety of candied yams. When I was a kid, I didn’t care for it much, (in fact, I “picked out” the yams!) but now that I am more mature, I like it a lot. If you really don’t like yams, just use one can of yams instead of two, and it tastes a lot more like apple pie.
