In the United States, Thanksgiving is a holiday that’s been celebrated since 1621. It came from a mix of European (The Pilgrims) and Native American traditions and is to give thanks to the land and deities for the good harvest and celebrate the hard work done in the previous months.

Nowadays, Thanksgiving is an occasion to be thankful for the people and good things in your life, to be close to your loved ones and, of course, do your best at cooking a turkey!

Prepare your eyes, this post is all about Thanksgiving Food!
