Christmas traditions - national and international

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Afternoon.

I read an article about Carp consumption in Poland. Apparently there's a tradition of feasting on Christmas Eve on meat free dishes. Carp is a significant dish as part of this.

Love hearing about how other countries, cultures, regions and religions celebrate (if at all). Being UK based the assumption is it's blasted drunk Christmas eve, ridiculous amounts of food and more booze on Christmas day, leftovers and probably more booze on boxing day.

So, fellow blues, particularly international ones, got any interesting traditions or foodstuffs you consume?
