Let me start by saying that no one at the Beebom office knew that Turnover is even food. This utter fact confused me with the Yellow category for a solid 15 minutes. Once I had moved on from that, I quickly dived into the sea of Green. The only saving grace here was knowing my phonetics, which helped me solve the category.
I then moved on to the Blue category and got stuck for a long time again. While I knew geography wasn’t my strongest suit, turns out I also lack general knowledge. Thankfully, a colleague jumped in to help me out. With only four words to go, I combined them all to get the Purple category and got my answer for NYT Connections for November 23.
