What traditions are you most looking forward to this Thanksgiving? Call me crazy but I love the day-long cooking extravaganza even more than the food itself!
As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving this year, U of M professors are studying the cultural traditions of families across the country. Professor Beeman in CLA’s Department of Anthropology studies eating habits to find the do’s and don’ts of cultural traditions all over the world. Given my age rank in the family, I am thankful we don't have a tradition of forming a procession to the table with the oldest, most prominent, or most-respected people leading the way as many cultures do!
Before you sit down for turkey and stuffing tomorrow, read more or check out this video of Professor Beeman to learn how your family traditions are shaping American holiday dining!
