Each country has a holiday similar to thanks giving. WHY!? It is simple: It is the celebration of the LAST HARVEST! The purpose was to eat all of teh perishable foods in the stores (stres as in the places where people kept their food, such as the cellars and what not). Because there was no real thing such as deep freeze or refrigerators.
So people would eat all of the food for the purpose of gaining weight to survive the winter!
It is an important "holiday" because it was out of necessity to survive.
Even people who are jewish participated in a similar celebration, because it is not a religious holiday. Although, now, people forget this, it is an important thing to remember.
SO HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND AND GAIN LOST OF WEIGHT!!!!
