I'm guessing that's the first fresh food they could lay their hands on? At the time, where they were from, it would have been customary to eat bacon (it's the only meat that would last for long periods because it's cured).
Apart from royalty, though, people ate a lot less meat than today. Humans in general have always eaten less meat than we modern people do. First we began to eat it every week and now most people eat it every day. From a historical perspective we look absolutely obsessed with flesh.
Also, weird fact, the first turkeys to be eaten for Thanksgiving were imported from England.
Is it normal Thanksgiving

That is a weird fact. I assume that the Native Americans brought the eel to the party.
