turkey or ham or ???????

Ham, of course. It's always been the Yule Boar here in the North. I don't know where the heck Christmas turkey comes from?

"Pork is a traditional Yule dish in Norway - probably a reminder of the time when the boar, an animal sacred to Freyr, the Norse god of Yule and fertility, was sacrificed at Yule and its flesh eaten as part of the feast."

I ordered the Turkeys and the Hams today.

Shouldn't this be in the Chit-Chat Forum?

I have found most people in Chit Chat to not be receptive to this type of thread.
It mentions an American holiday (Thanksgiving) & would probably just trigger the anti-American people.
Most NASCAR people enjoy Thanksgiving & Christmas, so it is better posted here in NASCAR.
I hope the powers that be have the good judgement to leave this thread here in NASCAR.


Some people in Chit Chat are only interested in their little world & what pertains to them ONLY.

If you want, you could start a thread like this in Chit Chat & see what happens.

Well previously goose was the traditional Christmas meal, but turkey is just easier to get.

In my freezer there are 3 turkies and no hams. I'm thinking turkey this year.

I've had turkey and ham in the past, but that just makes for more leftovers to deal with.

I would like to try goose sometime.

I'm thinking Peking duck, just like in "A Christmas Story."
