Why do we eat turkey on Thanksgiving?
For meat, the Wampanoag brought deer, and the Pilgrims provided wild “fowl.” Strictly speaking, that “fowl” could have been turkeys, which were native to the area, but historians think it was probably ducks or geese. By the turn of the 19th century, however, turkey had become a popular dish to serve on such occasions.
