The best items in a British Christmas Dinner, according to AI - so, do you agree with the ranking?

[GammaGlobulin]

AI has no taste.

 

Some are lucky enough just to be able to eat anything, this Christmas.

 

My heart bleeds for those that are so unfortunate.

 

There SHOULD be plenty to go around....

 

If only the food were distributed more equitably.

 

ALSO, both AIs are all screwed up.  There is no mention of a goose, which is most important for a British Christmas dinner.

 

So, the entire list is bogus from the very beginning.

Sorry AI ....  you are badly mistaken on this one .....  

 

Turkey is usually dry and tasteless .....  

Down Under ... we prefer the traditionally honey glazed ham ...

The English are def people of the parsnip. Never seen it much anywhere else. 'Waitrose Ginger Parsnip Soup, had it at least weekly.

 

Americans will tolerate a bit of parsnip in a 4 to 1 carrot/parsnip ratio.

Hate ( actually loathe ) parsnips and brussel sprouts.

 

Don't think I ever had a proper Christmas dinner. Grew up in warm/ hot countries at Xmas time. No extended family gatherings. When I was in the military either working over Xmas break so I could go skiing in winter, or posted to hot countries.

Spare a thought for the starving in Gaza, as you tuck into your ample repast.

Sincerely hope y’all have a great wonderful gut filling Christmas, though I foresee I’ll be chomping on some sort of Thai dish on that day.

I have always tried to do a trad dinner on 25th, but most gets wasted. Chicken Satay and fried rice tomorrow followed by Apple Crumble and cream. Plenty of vino though.

No need to remind me...actually.

 

This entire travesty has been much on my mind for many weeks.

 

But, thank you for mentioning it, once more.

Let's all remember.

Where did cranberry sauce come from for an English Christmas dinner?

Duh. Cranberry bogs in Cape Cod.
