Rockwell Thanksgiving Turkey

I know some folks are wont to serve ham on Thanksgiving — and even our family opted for serving fajitas on one particularly hectic holiday — but the meal most associated with Thanksgiving in this country is a nice roasted turkey with plenty of stuffing.

But how much do you really know about your dinner? Take our little turkey quiz to find out (if you’d like to try your trivia knowledge alongside family and friends, scroll down for our free printable version of the turkey test):

Let’s Talk Turkey:

    thermometer in which part of the turkey while baking?

    b. middle of the back

    turkeys called?
    a. a gaggle
    b. a strut
    c. a flock
    d. a skien
  7. Wild turkeys can run at speeds of 25 mph. How fast can they fly?

  8. At nearly 5 lbs per person annually, what is the top turkey-eating country in the world?
    a. Israel
    b. the United States
    c. France
    d. the UK
  9. Turkeys recognize each other by their unique voices. Males gobble; what to females do?
    a. they gobble, too

    b. they’re killed before their feathers turn bronze

How’d you do? Did any of those questions stump you?

PLEASE NOTE: The answer key is on page 2 of our Turkey Trivia printable. If you are printing lots of copies for a party or family gathering, print as many copies of page 1 (the actual quiz) as you want, but you’ll only need to print one copy of page 2 (and no fair peeking at the answers until everybody is finished with the test!)
