Globalization of THANKSGIVING

First HAPPY THANKSGIVING to everyone and speaking of this I woke up and thought about is THANKSGIVING part of globalization and my answer to this was yes because in every country or different part of the country people celebrate Thanksgiving to thank other people and to celebrate as a family together. In addition this is part of Globalization because all around the world people celebrate this holiday very different with different types of food and sauces all together. This can be related to hunger because there are many people that are hungry but in the USA even the poor get to celebrate with us by giving donations of turkeys around the world.

The early American colonists, who grew up eating this “turkey” in Europe, found similar-looking birds in their new environs, a North American wild version known as meleagris Americana. But these wild birds didn’t take well to being domesticated – whereas the Mexican variety had already been bred for eating in Europe and was reimported back to the North American continent under the name “turkey.”

While the first Thanksgiving meal probably involved a variety of local birds, it is most likely that what Americans know today as turkey is a descendant, in fact, of this Mexican bird, which made a round trip from Mexico back to Plymouth via Europe, on English and Spanish ships.
