When is Thanksgiving Day in America? [br]
Thanksgiving Day is America’s version of a harvest festival. (1) The holiday is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. This day, millions of Americans will join family and friends to give thanks and eat a meal with a history that is centuries old.
Early European settlers in North America held other ceremonies where they gave thanks. (2) But what Americans often consider the first Thanksgiving took place in Plymouth Colony. Those settlers are known as the Pilgrims. They held a three-day celebration in the fall of 1621. They celebrated the harvest with members of a local Indian tribe.
The best known food that Americans traditionally eat on Thanksgiving is turkey. Thanksgiving turkeys are traditionally served with a bread mixture that some Americans call stuffing. (3) Side dishes include cranberries, sweet potatoes and green beans or other vegetables. The meal traditionally ends with a dessert of pumpkin pie or pecan pie.
Some Thanksgiving foods have changed over time. For example, most turkeys these days are bred with larger breasts to provide more white meat. Corn has also changed. It tastes much sweeter than the starchier corn of the past. The way Americans prepare for Thanksgiving has also changed. Today people look for ways to save time, though not everyone does. Some people buy prepared food for the holiday, and some people go to the restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner.
