Creative Cat Productions | What people actually ate at the first Thanksgiving and why it doesn’t actually matter @creativecatproductions | Uploaded November 2020 | Updated October 2024, 41 minutes ago.
Clare and I discuss what people ACTUALLY ate at the first thanksgiving, according to meager historical records.....and we don’t even care all that much.
For us the Thanksgiving holiday that matters is the one that we inherited from our parents and grandparents. The people whom we know and love.
So if the pilgrims and Indians at the Plymouth colony ate eels, or shellfish, we’re really not all that affected. Interested, maybe, but we’re not changing our dinner plans. And, let’s be real, neither are the know-it-alls who like to bring this stuff up every single year either. They’re eating turkey and green bean casserole. Just like me. Except WE don’t eat green bean casserole....we’re better than that.
Anyway, we love Thanksgiving. Not really because of its connection to a particular historical event, of marginal importance, but because we love or family and its a thing we’ve always done together. It’s not like we have a choice in the matter, and that’s okay too.
Here’s hoping you all have a beautiful Thanksgiving with your family this year, no matter how you all prefer to celebrate it!
