In South America we don't celebrate this holiday, it seems familiar to me only because I've seen movies or series that mention it, to be honest I thought Thanksgiving was on December 24th, I hadn't bothered to investigate either. Thanks for clarifying for me.
I love it!! It is the day that it is OK to eat until you are stuffed full. Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, green beans, potatoes and gravy, rice, some kind of pie, wine and egg nog!
When I was young, it was the only time of the year we ever ate rice, it was quite a treat!

Was eating rice a luxury? I hope you enjoy tomorrow and eat until you are satisfied. All that food sounds delicious

When I was young we never ate rice, except on Thanksgiving and sometimes on Christmas. We also ate Uncle Ben's Converted Rice, which was not the tastiest rice in the world. So, until I was about 33, rice was a treat. Now, I eat it every day!

Once again, SN surprises me. I continue to live in ignorance. I thought that rice was one of the few foods that was most accessible to the entire population anywhere in the world. Thank you for this lesson.
It is a blessing that you can now eat the things you want. I am very happy for you and I sincerely hope that you are very well and have a great day tomorrow, paying homage to the name of the celebration and giving thanks for the blessings in your life, being thankful for the people you love and who love you, and being thankful for your personal growth and improvement.

It is not that rice was unavailable, we just did not eat it. You could buy it in any form you wanted, brown, long grain or short grain, we just didn't eat it. My family did not make it a part of our meals.

Please excuse me, I made a translation mistake and misunderstood everything. Haha, now I feel ashamed.
reply
No need for feeling ashamed. Everyone makes translation mistakes. If you used Google translation services, it is prone to make some kind of errors. Don't worry about it. Words and languages are difficult to work with at times.

Sometimes these mistakes happen and a single word changes the whole context. Now I got curious, why wasn't rice in your diet?
