| First Thanksgiving Feast - There is only one first-person account of what food the settlers and the Native Americans ate at the feast. They ate roasted fowl, such as duck, goose, and wild turkey; cornbread; fish, like cod and sea bass; and venison, which the Indians brought. There were most likely vegetables made into stews and desserts, too. All the food was put on the table at once, and those who shared in the meal could eat in any order they wanted. The settlers did not use forks—nobody did at that time. They ate with spoons, knives, and their fingers. |
