I am a very patriotic person. I love our country, and especially Thanksgiving, when we talk about what we are thankful for. I also love the food, and that I get out of school early. However, I want to make one thing clear.
There is substantial evidence that the pilgrims never ate turkey on the first thanksgiving. Killing such a timid bird was considered lazy, and the Native Americans would certainly have certainly refused to dine with lazy people. I’m not saying it’s for sure not, I’m saying that it’s highly unlikely, and that’s enough to stop me.
Carry on with your turkey, but I don’t think I want to join you, thank you.
Unless if the pilgrims said that the main dish was wild vulture, and the Indians believed them.
Which is unlikely.

What is to say that any of the foods that we currently have as traditional were actually served on that day? It could have been anything, but this is what has become the standard. If you personally don't like turkey,that is something else entirely.
