All About Turkeys.

When it comes to Thanksgiving, turkeys are a holiday staple. But, have you ever wondered about where these birds come from? Indigenous to the America, the turkey, was first eaten by the Spanish explorers. When these birds were brought to Europe, they were thought to taste like the guinea fowls that accompanied the Turks when they arrived in Europe. The American bird was thus dubbed €˜turkey' and the name stuck. Today, male turkeys are called toms and females are called hens.
