Like most traditions, this one has a sound economic foundation - Turkey was cheaper by the pound back in the 18th and 19th centuries and it had little other use. Beef was expensive - cows were more valuable for dairy products than for meat and chicken laid eggs.
Well, hope you all had a great Turkey day.
