Retailers Promote Combined Holiday

With Thanksgiving coinciding with the first day of Hanukkah this year, some retailers are offering special menus or promotions for the combined holiday many have dubbed “Thanksgivukkah.”

New York-based Fairway Market has created a Thanksgivukkah catering menu for 2013. The menu includes the staples of the November holiday, such as a turkey, gravy and cranberry sauce, as well as traditional Hanukkah foods like potato latkes and doughnuts.
