What was the first Thanksgiving like?

What was on the menu at the first Thanksgiving?

  • Did the Pilgrims have a similar feast on the first thanksgiving compared to the feast we have today? If not, then what would they have eaten during their meal?

  • Answer:

    Try checking the Plimouth Plantation website for what is generally believed to be the first Thanksgiving. And no, the first Thanksgiving was not the same as what tends to be on the menu for most households today. Actually, there was a Thanksgiving held in 1619 at the site of Berkley Plantation in Virginia, which predated the Pilgrims landing in Mass by a year and seventeen days.

They probably ate alot of fish and wild game like venison or bear or birds of some kind. The Indians had shown them how to plant corn so they would have had corn dishes and berries too.

They would have eaten whatever was available at the time. Wild fowl, corn, vegetables. And we're not even sure there was a "first" Thanksgiving as we know it today.
