Thanksgiving Day is a U.S. Federal holiday observed after the 4th Thursday in November. In many American homes though, the true religious roots of Thanksgiving have long faded; for most it is about cooking and gathering together over a huge meal with family and friends. After all, turkey (being a staple of so ubiquitous a holiday it can come close to being considered synonymous with Thanksgiving) was maybe not on offer for the first feast when the Pilgrims hosted in 1621. Yet in 2017 gut research from the National Turkey Federation shows that nearly 90 percent of Americans will eat the bird on Thanksgiving (roasted, baked or deep-fried)
Turkey is the most iconic food of Thanksgiving, almost becoming synonymous with the holiday, with most American families preparing roast turkey as the main dish.
Since 1924, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade has become an important part of American Thanksgiving tradition, famous for its giant balloons, floats, and performances, marking the official start of the Christmas season.
Thanksgiving is one of the most important family gathering holidays in America, with people traveling long distances to reunite with loved ones, share Thanksgiving dinner, and express gratitude for the good things in life.
