Thanksgiving Day in the United States is on the Fourth Thursday in November. The first Thanksgiving in America is considered to be the pilgrims sharing a feast with Indians after a successful harvest season. Pilgrims are first settlers that came to America from England.
On Thanksgiving Day, people usually eat turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes with gravy, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, sweet corn, and pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving dinner. The Thanksgiving holiday is also one of the busiest travel periods of the year.
