My husband and I had the same conversation the other day and couldn't come up with a good answer. So we decided that Thanksgiving we eat the traditional Thanksgiving food but on Christmas, we do something different every year. This year we're going to have a huge breakfast buffet for dinner. Last year, since he is 1/2 Puerto Rican, we had a traditional Puerto Rican meal for Christmas and the year before that we went all out with Italian food - fish, lasagna, garlic bread, antipasta and salad. mmm...I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

For Thanksgiving, our main dish is Turkey and there is soooo much food. Christmas our main dish is Ham and not as much food. We consider Thanksgiving more about eating than Christmas it. Plus, we never actually have a "sit down" dinner at Christmas.

In the U.S., I don't think there is much difference. We have turkey & ham on both holidays, and basically, the same menu. To me, Thanksgiving is like a rehearsal for Christmas. In fact, I wish that we would have different courses at Thanksgiving, because by Christmas, the dinner is no longer special.

In my family, Thanksgiving is ALL about the food and family time. We have a huge turkey dinner then a family football game. This year we are adding a clay pigeon shoot, too!
We have lots of little kids in our family so Christmas is naturally more about church, the church pageant and then presents. I'm sure when the kids are older, it will become more about family time and we'll add some new competitions on Christmas! :)

They can be the same of you want them to be. But Thanksgiving tends to be bigger and have a lot more food than on Christmas. On Christmas the kids just want to open their gifts and you dont need that big of a meal to satisfy them.

Thanksgiving is with roasted AND deep fried turkey at my friends house, Christmas dinner is Standing Rib roast at mine. Either way, it's 24 stuffed and happy people!

Most people would have a Turkey for Thanksgiving. At Christmas instead of the same thing many people have hams. Some have both and some switch them around.

There are regional differences in the meanings of supper and dinner. It is apparently common in the southern US to call the three meals of the day "breakfast", "dinner", and "supper". In the northeastern US, on the other hand, they tend to be called "breakfast", "lunch", and "dinner". The terms have also changed meaning over time. The "newcivilians" site in the sources has an interesting discussion of 19th-century American usage. My Chambers dictionary, from England, says that dinner is "the chief meal of the day", while supper is "a meal taken at the close of the day", but I don't know if those usages are actually current in England. In my family, from New York and New Jersey, back in the 1950s, "supper" was the ordinary last meal of the day, eaten typically around 6PM. "Dinner" was a special meal eaten only on Sunday, at around 4PM. On days when we had dinner, we did not have supper.

Aside from the obvious answer that they are celebrating two different holidays... I think the difference is that one is usually coupled with gift-giving and far more festive where the Thanksgiving dinner is mainly about the gathering of one's family over some good fixins and giving thanks for everything that you've been blessed with that year. I think both are great occassions to show your culinary prowess. :)
