I don't celebrate Christmas, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the delicious food that I can buy at Christmas time. :)
My favourite Christmas related food would have to be those little cocktail sausages that have bacon wrapped around them. In this country (UK), they're called "Pigs in Blankets". How cute.
What's your favourite Christmas food, and why?
I'm going to agree with you on the bacon-wrapped sausage. Those things are great, and they're probably my favourite Christmas food. (other than snow)
Im british and I don't have a clue what your on about.
Pigs in blankets?
Bacon and sausage? It can't get any worse than that. Yuck.
I like this cake stuff that my Grandmum makes for Christmas. But only cause there's dimes in it and we light it on fire.
I eat anything except Turkey for xmas, even sprouts and Brocolli (which I like anyway)
Turkey is the most vile meat ever.
It's not really a food we eat only on Christmas, but my mom makes this breakfast casserole on Christmas morning that rox pretty hardcore. Sometimes she'll make it for other occasions, but not a whole lot.
My Grandma used to make that. She also used to put pennies in it until my Dad nearly choked on one a few years back.Quote:

It's sweet and fruity, rich and tarty.
I can't really describe it any other way (it's an acquired taste). :/
'nog, yo.
My Gramma makes the most wicked table ever. Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, the works. And they are all perfection. I can't choose between them. However, I make Tiramisu every Christmas and its awesome, if I say so myself... :D
I don't have any Christmas-specific meals, but I have sausage, bacon, cheese and egg rolls with tomato sauce on regular occasions throughout the year. :D
I've always known Pigs in a Blanket to be sausage wrapped in a croissant-like biscuit, but your way sounds tastier. :)
I like Egg Nog the most, though.
You should also try a bacon, mushroom and cheese toastie with brown sauce.Quote:

"Pigs in a blanket" refers to sausage wrapped in a cresant (sp?) roll in the US. They're good stuff.Quote:

Fish on Christmas Eve. Food on Christmas Day.
"When you live in my house, you follow my rules. Now butter your bacon"
"But dad, my heart hurts."
"Do it. And bacon your sausage"
Not exact, cause I don't remember that well. Still Simpsons = <3
Pigs in a Blanket is a Christmas food? o.O
I like, uh... food. All of it.
Classic XD.Quote:

Bacon and Sausage is what makes Britain so Britainy.
It can be bought year-round, in most places, but it is considered holiday food.Quote:

Bacon wrapped scallops are really good though.
I've only seen sausage and a roll or a weenie and a roll. Never seen with cheese or bacon.Quote:

The state that I live in, Iowa, is one of our countries largest pork producing states. I guess because of this, I never associated them with Britain.Quote:

My Auntie's home made christmas pudding. It can get no better.
But all christmas food is nice, the "Pigs in Blanket" things rule.
So wait wait.Quote:

No; heart disease is what makes Britain so Britainy. :thumb:Quote:

Gee, you're making me hungry. I remember sausages with bacon wrapped around. *drools* But I'm on my own personal starvation diet, so I can't. ;)
No Christmas meal for me!
Pigs penis wrapped in well...pig.
Now thats good eatin'.
Ham, because that's the only traditional holiday food I can eat. I prefer eating my own favourite non-holiday foods. xD
Eggnog. French vanilla low fat to be exact. :D
Pizza is a good christmas food.
Turkey = (better not say ugh...) .... bleh. -_-" ugh...
