You know what I just figured out?

Tofurky is... *giggles* - Faux Turkey!

(Am I the last to get the joke?)

It's also Tofu Turkey (TOFU tuRKEY), though either rationale is justifiable. :p

Well, yes, but the tofu turkey bit is obvious.

No, you're not. I am.

Even sadder? I have MADE tofurkey from scratch on several Thanksgivings.

I read all about this during thanksgiving.

One of the characters in Homer Price - the sheriff - is constantly spoonerizing. For that matter, that's the whole point of Runny Babbit, which is a great book.

Hah, I never thought of that before!

Nor did I. And I wonder whether that spoonerism was intentional (i.e. that "tofu turkey" is the whole explanation as intended), or whether it's merely serendipitous.
