This is the ONLY acceptable cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving dinner. Jellied with lines or ridges. Ocean Spray is fine, but I prefer store brand.
No canned whole berry, and certainly no fancy homemade crap.
About 20 years ago my cousin's fiancee brought a bowl of homemade cranberry sauce to Thanksgiving dinner. Some were aghast, and a few even asked where is the good canned stuff. Most were polite enough to take a small bit, but the bulk of it went uneaten. I'm surprised my cousin didn't call off the engagement after this serious breech of etiquette.
The fiancee realized that we were all uncultured swine and never made the same mistake again.
