Turkey and alcohol, I guess?
At least, that must be the only reason why we don't sit around celebrating it.
I am sorry in advance.
First thing's first: Turkey.
To be honest, this surprises me massively. Turkey is by far one of the lesser birds. Chicken, duck, heck - even quail - all rank higher than the dry and often disappointing turkey.
I'm not sure of the rationale behind the turkey-eating. Was there a fight with turkeys at some point like in that episode of South Park? If so, wouldn't you want the past to remain the past, and move on? I'm not sure American. I'm just not sure.

"Autumn" colours. Also, pumpkins.
This photo is described by Thinkstock as "Pumpkins and squashes with a shinning fall background," and I'd say that's a pretty good description of Thanksgiving itself. I think? Every November all of Ameri-Twitter explodes with "pumpkin pie" this and "I love the leaves" that.
Well, why? Pumpkin is okay, I guess. As far as vegetables go, though, it's not ideal. Pumpkin does make up a rather delectable bread. Mmm... pumpkin bread.
