Christmas is ideally known for two things: presents and food.
On the day, while kids patiently wait for the Mommy-daddy Santa to put their presents, the elders wait to devour on to the Christmas dinner. All those puddings, pies and cake become an excuse for those who had been keeping themselves away from sweets all this while. And why not, it is no merry without any cherry. Well, it’s Christmas, hola!
Different countries have different traditions and food habits for this same festival. But, majorly the Christmas traditional dinner consists of a big stuffed turkey with mashed potatoes along with gravy or sauce and vegetables. For deserts, there could a cake, pie or a pudding. Deserts mostly everywhere are the staple food. Wine completes the traditional dinner.
