Thanksgiving Day is an annual national holiday in theĀ United StatesĀ andĀ CanadaĀ celebrating the harvest and other blessings of the past year. Americans generally believe that their Thanksgiving is modeled on a 1621 harvestĀ feastĀ shared by the English colonists (Pilgrims) ofĀ PlymouthĀ and theĀ Wampanoag people.
The AmericanĀ holidayĀ is particularly rich inĀ legendĀ and symbolism, and the traditional fare of the Thanksgiving meal typically includesĀ turkey, bread stuffing,Ā potatoes,Ā cranberries, andĀ pumpkin pie.
