In the eyes of Westerners, it is not a Christmas dinner without roast turkey. Some Westerners are also accustomed to placing a whole roasted suckling pig on the Christmas dinner table. People in Britain, the United States and other countries also like to put an apple in the pig's mouth. This custom may have originated from some larger families, because only large families could afford to eat a pig. Later, some people who were particular about pomp and circumstance followed suit when they hosted Christmas dinners. Desserts after dinner usually include plums, puddings and mince pies.2. Buchedenoel : Buchedenoel, a cake shaped like a tree trunk, is a famous French Christmas delicacy. Before the invention of electricity, the French gave a good firewood as a Christmas gift. The French are romantic by nature, and even the origin of their cuisine is romantic: Once upon a time there was a young man who could not afford to buy a Christmas present, so he picked up a piece of wood in the forest and gave it to his lover. Not only did he win her heart, but he also rose to prominence from then on. Therefore, log cakes have also become a symbol of wishing good luck in the coming year. 3. Almond pudding When Christmas dinner starts, you must eat a portion of almond pudding before you can start eating anything else. Whoever can eat the only whole almond will be the luckiest person in the coming year. Usually adults will put this almond in the bowl of the youngest child to make them happy. 4. Gingerbread The most famous Christmas food in Germany is gingerbread (Lebkuchen), a small dessert between cake and biscuit.
