What's thanksgiving?
The event that Americans commonly call the "First Thanksgiving" was celebrated by the Pilgrims after their first harvest in the New World in 1621.[3] This feast lasted three days, and it was attended by 90 Native Americans (as accounted by attendee Edward Winslow)[4] and 53 Pilgrims.[5] The New England colonists were accustomed to regularly celebrating "thanksgivings"—days of prayer thanking God for blessings such as military victory or the end of a drought.[6]

First thanksgiving
Back then (pilgrims) didn't eat on a table they ate on a floor. Also didn't look all festive and decorated like we imagine. They basically ate on dirt but still had different food.
