Highly enjoyable article my dear!!! I, too, have looked at toasted marshmallows on root veg and wondered WTF!! Many a time. Who first thought that was a good idea?!!
Do you not really get what Thanksgiving is? Does the idea of pumpkin pie freak you out? Does this holiday seem vague and confusing? YOU'RE IN LUCK: I've written an explainer for non-Americans as to what Thanksgiving is. Please send me your qs I missed!https://www.newstatesman.com/culture/food-drink/2018/11/what-is-thanksgiving-explainer-british-people …

Thank you. Id only add that for some/many migrants the story is also interpreted to be one of migration, and that celebrating Thanksgiving in the US was a part of 'integration'/acceptance as American. As with Pilgrim-Native American part of story, obviously truth more complicated

Why are liberals so joyless at this time of year? The liberal think pieces I’ve read seem to revolve around confronting family members, preparing themselves for a war footing; while the conservative ones appear to be looking forward to the tradition. Signed, a UK Trump supporter

Great piece but I'm faintly bemused by this Philip Pullmanesque parallel Great Prydain replete with arcane & hallowed religious observances you've managed to encounter...
