Why do we chow down on turkey, is it the most suitable choice for thanksgiving?

It so delicious and one bird feeds an army.

Do you think Bulls should be put to death for sport because it entertains people?

Same for turkeys.  Yes, many parts of the earth need to consider anything that is obtainable, a food source.   I would rather MUCH rather get used to eating insects that are food sources than eat a cow or chicken or turkey.

I'm all for eating insects and getting used to it.  I think it could stop world hunger since no one even cares to charge money for them and they can be found everywhere.

Now I never ATE one.  But I am open-minded.   I would rather eat insects for the rest of my life than be responsible for the death of any animal because I want a hamburger or a nice bird on my plate for Thanksgiving.

Thank you, God, for letting me experience a turkey.  I love what the bird has taught me.  It is a spirit animal to the Indians in this country.    It serves as a model, not something to be shot at, eaten and discarded.



The Turkey is a spirit animal closely associated with honoring nature and the Earth.

The turkey reminds us to develop a harmonious relationship with the land and our environment and consider them as foundations to our well-being and sustenance.

The Turkey, a symbol of abundance

The Turkey has traditionally been associated with the spirit of giving and abundance, especially in North America. In the modern American culture, the Turkey is an important part of Thanksgiving Day. Originally, this day commemorates the pilgrim’s first harvest during which four turkeys were eaten. Nowadays, food is shared in celebration of gratitude and community.

In the traditional Native American culture, some tribes used to give turkeys as giveaway presents to other tribes.


Turkey Spirit Animal
The spirit of the Turkey and the importance of honoring feminine energies

Because the turkey is closely associated with the spirit of the Earth, it is also symbolic of feminine energies at work in our lives. This animal has been revered in ancient traditions as a symbol of fertility and abundance.

The turkey is a useful guide to unlocking the fullness of life. It invites those who have it as totem to cultivate the balance between giving and receiving and find contentment in what they have.
Turkey totem, community, and sharing

The spirit of the Turkey totem puts an emphasis on community and the importance of sharing and generosity. The wisdom of this spirit animal is about paying attention to the people who are part of our life, whether it’s our family members, coworkers, classmates, or society at large.

When the turkey shows up as a spirit guide, it encourages us to see beyond our immediate personal needs and foster a sustainable relationship with others. Those who have the turkey as a power animal or totem may be inclined to be generous and giving without expecting anything in return.


Dreaming About The Turkey

The turkey being a sign of abundance can bring the message that more abundance in your life is on the way. You’ve been working hard and life’s rewards are coming.

I don't care that muchfor the turkey... I like the bread stuffing though.. I don't like that you are getting thanksgiving  soon and I get NOTHING. This is not okay.

Turkeys are native to the Americas, there are no wild Turkeys in Europe or Asia. So for an uniquely American celebration like Thanksgiving Turkey was the obvious choice.

We decided last night to have ribeyes and lobster and leave the turkey in the freezer.     It will be the first time I look forward to the meat on the TG plate.  I just don't like turkey very much.  The breast made into turkey salad is my favorite way to eat it.  I always love all the vegetables and casseroles though.
