How Is Thanksgiving Celebrated?

Thanksgiving in America is very family-focused. During the day, family and friends will come together and eat a large meal and spend quality time together.

Traditional Thanksgiving meals include dishes like sweet potato casserole with marshmallows, stuffing, green beans, cranberry sauce, fruit pies, and other in-season foods like walnuts, potatoes, corn, squash, and mushrooms. Of course, this also includes the main course for meat-eaters, a turkey!
