about Thanksgiving all right here's what. I've done I've amassed courtesy of. huffing to Post article um some. interesting facts about Thanksgiving but. I've Twisted these in such a way as to. make them into question that I want to. ask you R having not seen this article. that's in my hand I haven't seen it man. if any of you watch R much you realize. that he takes the stance of kind of. knowing stuff everything you mean you. said it so now I'm just okay if if you.
know stuff then answer these questions. about Thanksgiving I don't know a lot. about Thanksgiving though let me let me. be don't hedge let me hedge a little bit. I don't know a lot if I get any of these. right it'll be impressive to you all. right so I've got I've got uh roughly. eight questions hold on and usually when. I play a game with you I you win. something I offer something at the. beginning I'm like we'll go get ice. cream if you get all these right that's. right okay if if you get these right I. get a Twinkie uh I'll I'll I'll spend my. Thanksgiving with you well that's. already been planned we we will be.
together on Thanksgiving our fames I'll. be happy about it some other families. I'll be happy about you'll enjoy your. Thanksgiving if I get all this right. yeah with you well the chances of me. getting this these all right are so slim. so give me if I get 50% right you will. enjoy Thanksgiving okay that's it. otherwise what I I seem like Scrooge. first question this this makes no sense. by the way see if you can answer at home. yeah it doesn't have to after the F at. not shoot I can't even my question it's.
not true or false is an open-ended. question at the first Thanksgiving which. is I'm referring to the three-day meal. shared between the Pilgrims and the. wapan noag tribe in 1621 I knew all. those facts how did they prepare their. turkey uh there was no turkey at the. first Thanksgiving it was a myth there. was no turkey in the first you're. right there's no evidence that turkey. was eaten at all it is more likely they.
ate venison which is deer meat of course. and a lot of seafood which is food from. the sea question. two which table utensil was not present. at the first Thanksgiving feast which is. the three-day meal share between the. Pilgrims and the wapa noag tribe in 1621. well I'm sure there weren't Chopsticks. but you you want me you're thinking of. something more speciic common American. Table utensil well there's only three. common ones and that's a foric spoon in. knife and I would say that this is not.
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire you don't. have to like drag this out by thinking. through your thought can I buy a vow. okay obviously they had knives there so. it's either the fork or the spoon and I. would think that there were no. Forks you're. right what did they use to eat a meal. with a knife a spoon and their fingers. the fork was not brought by the pilgrims. governor winr of mass Massachusetts.
introduced it 10 years later but it did. not really catch on until the 18th. century oh I knew that number three as. has been. demonstrated what do you mean. demonstrated go ahead number three when. browsing the TV dinner section of the. grocery store why Rhett are so many of. the frozen meals there versions of the. Thanksgiving. meal it's. good.
is why are so many frozen dinners of the. Thanksgiving variety yeah why are they. the Thanksgiving you know turkey. dressing you know you've seen it Frozen. TV dinners CU gravy freezes very. well no you got that one wrong in. 1954 um Swanson made their first TV. dinner and before then it wasn't even. called a TV dinner they didn't invent. the TV dinner they just invented the. name and Market it as TV dinner but it. was a result of a severe overabundance.
of turkeys that they Swanson makes. turkeys they had 260 tons of turkey that. they needed to get rid of so they. decided to bust it down in little. sections and freeze it as TV dinners and. then they the the genius was they. marketed it as TV dinners because of. course in 1954 the television was the. big craze so they said you're supposed. to eat this in front of a television. we'll call it a TV dinner people. snatched it up and just gobbled it up. like crazy nothing in there about gravy.
98 cents per package nothing about gravy. in there can't win them all Swanson. invented the TV dinner I'll take the. fourth question for 200. Alex how does turkey make us sleepy trip. toan be more specific it's a hormone. that uh matter of fact don't be more. specific you're wrong it doesn't make. you sleepy turkey does not make you. sleepy even though it has tripped in it.
which is known to make you sleepy. there's more tryptophan in soybeans soy. beans soy beans parmesan and pork you. don't know how much I eat like a whole. half of a turkey. though you eat a lot of pork too I do. and you don't get you're saying that. more of the it's more from just a food. coma in general it's not from the trip. Defan it's actually more from the. dessert when you eat the dessert get you. know all of the sugar in there it just. it gives you a crash and then you're. sitting there and that with combination.
of football you know you might as well. be watching golf so it's a myth that. turkey makes you sleepy it is yep even. though the trip to fan the trip van. thing is kind of like a red hearring. yeah yeah I think I get 50% on that one. number five at the first Thanksgiving. which is the three-day meal share. between the Pilgrims in the woag tribe. in. 1621 I remember it how did they prepare. their green bean casserole there was no. green bean casserole that's right see I. gave you that one I figured you'd pick. up on green green be casserole came into.
being 50 years ago it was created by. Campbell soup it was another marketing. scheme to just sell the cream of what. whatever cream of beans cream of. mushroom is it mushroom cream of beans. yeah cream of mushroom and they sell $20. million worth of cream of mushroom soup. good Stu mostly to make the casserole I. could have that cream of mushroom. injected right into my vein I would just. eat that right up how many turkeys are. consumed on Thanksgiving whoa good. question and I'm not talking about the.
first one cuz there weren't. any are you trying to embody a turkey or. something what do you think. people make your guess 60 million within. America 60. million nope 46. million that's pretty good I went I went. into the it's not a bad guess I just use. Simple statistics link you could learn. how to estimated 46 million turkeys are.
eaten on Thanksgiving that's more than. double the amount eaten on Christmas 22. million and Easter 19 million in 2010. more than 244 million turkeys were. raised and about 226 million of those. were consumed in the United States. turkeyy is really giving it up for us. turkey is giving it up give it up turkey. I do not eat turkey I eat ham I don't. like. turkey and I'm still a person I'm still. a human being yeah but you're a weird. person I mean you know.
[Laughter].
ah Thanksgiving only became a public. national holiday in 1863 in the midst of. the Civil War yeah that's what 1863. sounds a lot like 1941 president Daniel. de Lewis declared it so number eight at. the first Thanksgiving the three-day. meal Shar between the Pilgrims and the. woag tribe in. 1621 how did they prepare their. cranberry sauce how in the traditional. fashion they took cranberries they. boiled them down into a jet.
and to be specific they didn't e. cranberry sauce uh I gave it away you. changed your an halfway through that's. right though they didn't first. Thanksgiving most likely did not involve. cranberry sauce I know I'm letting so. many of you people down while there was. a plethora of cranberries for the. pilgrims to Feast upon sugar or a. cornucopia sugar was a luxury they did. not have any sugar I do not have enough. sugar to make it I don't think that guy. was at thanksgiv I don't think Chef boy. Rd was at Thanksgiving first thanks. thanks again to huffing to post for this.
article unrelated T tidbit the cranberry. used used to be called cranberry since. it had flowerings that Beed resemblance. to the bird it had flowerings it. flowered that's awkward okay let's move. on let's spin the wheel and in this. episode we learned something today I got. more than 50% right I believe and I'm. happy about it I'm going to be happy. tomorrow it's going to be a fun.
