hominy: You want to say it, TEd, or should I?
missed your chance, TEd.
At the first Thanksgiving feast, the Indians brought fresh venison, native roots, and a thick chowder of hominy grits and peas. As both main ingredients of that chowder preserved well in dried form, the chowder recipe became something of a staple of the diet of the pilgrims over the next winter -- when little fresh food was available -- as it had long been for the Indians.
Thus it was that the two races learned to live together in [drumroll] peas and hominy.
