Some refreshing of your history:
On January 31st 1957 the Canadian parliment declared Thanksgiving to be celebrated on the second Monday in October to celebrate the bountiful harvest. Some attribute the holiday to the explorer Martin Forbisher. In 1578 he had a ceremony to give thanks for his survival on a unsuccessfull voyage to find a new trade route to the orient. The English loyalist that moved to Canada after the American Revolution also kept this traditional celebration of the harvest.
____________________________________________________________
The exact history of Thanksgiving is somewhat unknown but most believe the holiday started when the Pilgrims sailed aboard the Mayflower to the first American colonies. These Pilgrims were members of the ENGLISH Separatist Church seeking out new lands were they could escape religious persecution. Pilgrims also settled in other European country’s, as well as North America. The first Thanksgiving was a shared harvest between the Native American’s and the Pilgrims, without the Native’s skill mastery of the North American harvest the Pilgrims would not have made it through the winter of 1621. The harvest was a traditional English harvest celebrated between ENGLISH settlers and Native Americans.

I also have information that it is celebrated in Japan as well as i know some-one from there that claims to celebrate it to show thanks.after all,that is what Thanksgiving is all about.____________________________________________________________
Even if you claim to not celebrate it im sure somwhere during fall (November) you hunt turkeys and feast even if you dont nessacarily call it Thanksgiving.It is also known as Harvest day at some places and it is thanksgiving no matter what you call it.

Turkey meat can be cooked (giving you 30 Cooking experience) and then dined upon to restore a small quantity of health. Imagine the delightful meals you could have in your house, savouring the aroma of freshly roasted turkey with your friends!
The cornucopia is a curious horn, into which you can put all manner of foods, then tip them out at once. In basic terms, this means you can use other foods on it until it has 14 Hitpoints’ worth of healing inside. You can then click on the cornucopia to automatically heal that much.
