Thanksgiving in the US

Sophie

So here in the UK we don’t have Thanksgiving, I just see it in movies!

I’d love to know a bit more about it. What do you do, is it just a meal with family & friends?

What kind of dishes do you have? My husband lived in America for 2 years and remembers a sugary potato dish, he didn’t like it as it was so sweet!

What do vegetarians have instead of turkey?

Thanks! :)
