Pilgrims served the wild turkeys on first Thanksgiving.
We have turkey seasoning and fancy ovens and they did not. Also, turkeys today are raised on farms. The turkeys served at the first Thanksgiving were wild.

The first person to eat turkey on Christmas day is not known, for sure. However, one of the first people to do it was King Henry VIII. Still, the goose remained the most popular Christmas day food in England until the turkey finally won out in the mid 20th century.
Well first off no one really new if they ate turkey, But they did eat wild fowl. I hope this helped. [$(100)$]
The celebration of Thanksgiving will be incomplete without the legendary Turkey. The Turkey derives its name from the 'turk turk' sounds it makes when scared. The famous 'Turkey' adorns the table of every household as a main course during the celebration. The customary dinner is a reminder of the 'Four Wild Turkeys' served at
The Turkey is an important part of the Thanksgiving tradition because according to the legend of the Pilgrims and Indians they shared turkey in a several day fest to thank the Indians for helping them plant crop and harvest for winter. Whether the Pilgrims and Indians actually ate turkey is not known. It is possible that they did because Turkey would be redilly abundant in the east US but this isn't a certainty. However, Turkey is a food that is abundant in the US and is large and can feed many people, this is probably why Turkeys are eaten at Thanksgiving.
The turkey is significant because it is believed that the pilgrims ate turkey at the first thanksgiving, though we do not know that for sure. What we know for sure is that the men were sent on a fowling hunt. Though it is likely they found wild turkeys, it could have been another type of fowl.
At the first Thanksgiving, the Pilgrims probably ate foods they grew, hunted, or gathered. These can include wild fowl, venison, Indian corn, flour, beans, pumpkin, currants, cranberries, plums, and walnuts. Wild fowl that were hunted could be wild turkey, goose, duck, and pheasants.
