What did the Germans eat for Thanksgiving?

Answer 1

The celebration came to be called Thanksgiving Day in Canada and the United States of America. Elsewhere, it was called the harvest festival. Celebration of the harvest was common throughout Europe. The dates may have differed. But different peoples shared a common reason for the harvest celebrations and a more or less common type of food to be served. So a German fare would have fit in with a general European fare of wild animal meat, harvested grains and vegetables, and baked breads and desserts.
