Document source description
During the winter of 1947, the Citizens Food Committee urged the public to eat less meat and poultry, so that grain that would normally go to feed livestock could be sent to famine-stricken people in Europe. The Committee encouraged people to not eat poultry on Thursday. The Trumans complied with the suggestions of the Committee and instead of eating their Thanksgiving turkey on Thursday, they ate it on Wednesday.
