While you're frying up some eggs and bacon, we're cooking up something else: a way to celebrate today's food holiday.

Prepare to get stuffed - November 24 is Thanksgiving!

While this national food holiday certainly can't come as a surprise, it is definitely one worth celebrating by spending the day with those you love most and feasting on wonderful food filled with soul and tradition.

You might have heard some variation on the origins of Thanksgiving in elementary school, but the holiday takes from both European and Native traditions. In Europe, folks liked to hold festivals to celebrate a good harvest and enjoy the fruits of their labor, which was quite similar to what Native Americans would do as well.

Once Europeans landed in America, they brought the harvest tradition with them. Put the two together and you've got one heck of a feast!
