Food served in traditional Thanksgiving dishes is probably the kind of food served at the first Thanksgiving feast. The menu is mostly made with original North American foods: roasted and stuffed turkey (“roasted turkey”) with cranberry sauce (“cranberry-sauce”), sweet potatoes (“sweet potatoes”), apple and pumpkin cakes (“pumkin pie”) and a variety of vegetables. As a meatless alternative, some food brands are now selling the so-called “Tofurky” produced with tofu.
Thanksgiving table after the prayer of thanksgiving will rise. This tradition varies from family to family or from friends to surroundings. In some families, people at the table say what they are grateful for this year.
The Friday after Thanksgiving is called “Black Friday.” That day, there are high deals at all outlets, and most people use this opportunity to buy their first Christmas gift. The presentation of Christmas decorations, which had not been seen before Thanksgiving, suddenly increases from Black Friday.
