From Mcfeasts to Family Feuds: the Thanksgiving Google Searches You Didn't Know You Needed
🦃✨ Thanksgiving According to Google searches ✨🦃
Tomorrow’s the big day, so let’s talk turkey—or lack thereof. Here’s how the internet is preparing, surviving, and reimagining Thanksgiving through their search habits.
1. McFeast Instead of Turkey?
🔍 11,000 searches for: “Is McDonald’s open on Thanksgiving?”
Why wrestle with dry turkey when you can savor a Big Mac? This year, some are swapping stuffing for nuggets and nostalgia.
2. Surviving the Family Feast

A bold 10 admitted defeat and asked Google for help. The other 299,999,990? They’re Googling “excuses to leave early.”
Pro Tip: Skip the awkward silence or heated debates. Instead, channel Forbes' wisdom—use AI like ChatGPT at the dinner table. From settling “Is cranberry sauce a must?” to cooling down political arguments, it’s the real MVP of holiday harmony.
3. Pilgrim Plates: Not What You Think
🔍 1,200 searches for: “What did the Pilgrims eat at the first Thanksgiving?”
