In the last meeting of the Constitution Class I lead in Temecula, California on Thursday night at Faith Armory, one of the students asked me about the original menu for the first Thanksgiving. I told them that the items were very different than what we have on the table today. Turkey was not an item, but there was a collection of other birds. The corn, not originally an item liked by the colonists, was off the cob, ground down into a mush, and made into bread that resembled pita bread. There was plenty of fish on the menu as well being feasted on. It was a three day banquet, and it was a celebration of survival as a result of good harvests, and capitalism.
