Because I didn't know why Americans eat turkey at thanksgiving day I looked it up.

Here the explanation:

 

Why do we eat turkey for Thanksgiving?In 1621 when the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians celebrated the first Thanksgiving, they were gobbling up many more foods than just turkey. Since lobster, goose, duck, seal, eel, and cod were plentiful during this time, these foods were most likely the main courses of this first feast. So how did the turkey become the main mascot of modern-day Thanksgiving if we don't know for certain that turkeys were at this first feast?

One story tells of how Queen Elizabeth of 16th century England was chowing down on roast goose during a harvest festival. When news was delivered to her that the Spanish Armada had sunk on it way to attack her beloved England, the queen was so pleased that she order a second goose to celebrate the great news. Thus, the goose became the favorite bird at harvest time in England. When the Pilgrims arrived in America from England, roasted turkey replaced roasted goose as the main cuisine because wild turkeys were more abundant and easier to find than geese.

大家好

我安全了解中国人不喜欢火鸡肉。

它的味道真是挺干的。

没有汁。只有肉的味道。

对中国人来说是一个真的最简单的味道。

而且一道淡而无味的菜

wǒ ánquán liǎo jiě zhōngguórén bù xǐhuan huǒ jī ròu.

tā de wèidào zhēn shì tǐng gàn de.

méi yǒu zhī. zhǐyǒu ròu de wèidào.

duì zhōng guó rén lái shuō shì  yí gè zhēn zuì jiǎndān de wèidào。

érqiě yí dào dàn ér wúwèi de cài.

Hi Jenny,

that's much easier and better.

顺便说一下我可以马上用这个言词:谢谢你一直支持我。

shùnbiàn shuō yīxià wǒ kěyǐ mǎshàng yòng zhège yáncí: xièxiè nǐ yīzhí zhíchí wǒ.

BTW I can immediately use this phrase:thank you for your permanent support!

And out of pure curiosity: why did you change your photograph/ avatar?

纯粹好奇心: 你为什么改变了你的照片

hi lujiaojie,

thanks for your help.I wanted to say I'd rather go to bookstalls than to buy in the internet ( amazon and the like) in order to preserve the smaller shops. My intention was to say: thus one can reduce the ongoing monopolization of trade.
