Search: What foods did the pilgrims eat on Thanksgiving.

1) Wild turkeys and venison etc.

2) No dairy products from cows but they might have had goat cheese

3) They didn't have pies or other sweets (they brought some sugar with them but ran out)

You can get more information from the above search.
