Greenland — Mattak
The Greenlanders call this unusual delicacy mattak, however, it can also be called muktuk. It’s made out of bowhead whales, beluga, or narwhal and is typically eaten raw. It’s very oily, has a nutty taste, and contains a lot of vitamin C!

Ok... Where to begin?
KFC is a VERY popular Christmas food in Japan.
Oliebollen in The Netherlands are basically just for the new year event and served with powdered sugar. Not icing.
Speculaas is just as popular in The Netherlands and mainly meant for December 5th, Sinterklaas. Basically our Santa Claus. (And partly what Santa Claus was created from)
And lastly, really, Canada? Brussels sprouts as a snack? I thought you were cool...
