Also known as cranberry log, is the cranberry sauce bought in a tin and served in the log shape it comes out in, preferably still bearing the indentations of the tin. It is part of a traditional holiday turkey meal, both at Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Boyfriend: Your mom forgot to mash up the cranberry sauce from the tin...
Girlfriend: No, that's the traditional cran-o-log.
