How Much Do You Know About Thanksgiving?

You know there is a big meal the day before you go shopping, but other than that, you don't know much. You should take the time to brush up a little bit on the history, traditions, and culture that surround the Thanksgiving holiday!

You remember some of the lessons you learned in elementary school, and that is about as far as your Thanksgiving knowledge ever got. It might not hurt for you to catch a documentary on the History channel of the real story of Thanksgiving and how it became a national holiday in America. It is also fun to watch some cooking shows to learn how a few of our favorite dishes were introduced onto the menu!

You are aware that the story is a little different than that happy-go-lucky version we all heard growing up, where pilgrims and Native Americans gathered for a feast, but there is a lot to the story you have never heard.

You have obviously paid attention to a history show or two about the real stories behind our Thanksgiving holiday. You may not be able to remember all the details, but you know the basics for sure!

You must be a history buff. Your knowledge of Thanksgiving traditions is unmatched by most. Just be careful that your stellar knowledge doesn't lead you down the 'know-it-all' path at your next Thanksgiving get-together!
