Forget the turkey and stuffing. The menu at the "First Thanksgiving" in 1621 looked very different. Primary sources say they ate venison (five deer brought by the Wampanoag), wild fowl (duck/geese), shellfish, and eel. There was no cranberry sauce, no pumpkin pie (no ovens), and no potatoes (not in North America yet). It was a feast of local survival, not modern comfort food. #History #Thanksgiving #FoodHistory #historyfacts #fblifestyle | Black Dragon Tavern
