A religious group known today as the Pilgrims were disillusioned with the Church of England and wanted to separate. Efforts to do this in England were futile due to the Crown's fierce resistance, so they moved at first to Holland until they were able to raise enough funds for a ship to the New World of America, which had been successfully settled since 1607. According to records, the group planned to experiment with a communist society where all the raised goods would be placed into a common store. In 1620, they landed and attempted to implement this economic system. Food shortages abounded, winter was long, and many died. The system was scrapped in the spring of 1621 and instead replaced it with open markets and an "every man for himself" system. With a market system in place, and a little bit of help from some gracious natives, the food supply grew to much higher levels and thus a feast was declared after harvest. The Pilgrim community was a devout one and thus gratitude to God was paid on this day of thanksgiving.<br> <h4>Thanksgiving Foods</h4> Of course, the most common food that is ever eaten during the Thanksgiving holiday is roast turkey. Generally, how one roasts a turkey is by thawing it (using the "cold water" method, this takes about 30 minutes per pound, so obviously an overnight job), removing the neck and giblets, adding some crouton-based stuffing, and cooking the turkey at 325°F for 15 minutes per pound until the meat is at 180°F. Further details can be found from this <a href="http://hgic.clemson.edu/factsheets/HGIC3560.htm">Web site</a>. In a crisis, call the Butterball Hotline at 1-800-BUTTERBALL (that is, 1-800-288-8372).<br> Other traditional Thanksgiving foods include:<br> <ul> <li>Green bean casserole (<a href="http://www.chefrick.com/html/gbcass.html">recipe</a>)<br> <span style="font-style: italic;">A recipe using green beans, cream of mushroom soup, and fried onions.

Prepare them with brown sugar and vanilla for a Thanksgiving classic. (OK, technically they're called "sweet potatoes," but 1] they're not potatoes and 2] yam is more fun to say.)<br> </span></li> </ul> <ul> <li>Squash<br> <span style="font-style: italic;">Acorn squash and butternut squash are the two most common varieties. Split the squash in half, sprinkle some brown sugar and honey or syrup in the cavities, and bake at 400°F for roughly an hour.<br> </span></li> <li>Mashed potatoes<br> <span style="font-style: italic;">Well, you have to do something with the turkey gravy.</span><br> </li> </ul> <li>Pumpkin pie<br> </li> <span style="font-style: italic;">Pumpkin puree is mixed with sugar and milk and baked in a pie crust.
