Only in the United States, more than 40 million turkeys are eaten every year during the holiday weekend. Usually the turkey is served with the sauce and the filling.
The cranberry sauce is traditional, made with fresh or frozen berries. Some traditional recepies for Thanksgiving are the sweet potatoes, combined with sugar, spices and butter.
Other vegetarian dishes are the salads, followed by the traditional pumpkin pie and whipped cream.
