The colonies didn't have Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving was created in 1860 by Lincoln. The people of the colonies did have a Harvest dinner and some religions (Pilgrims are one) of the time began the week with a fast. At the end of the week was a big dinner and this would become Thanksgiving. Depending on the area where they lived they could have wild game, various fruits and vegetables, breads and pies, and fish.
