Czech Republic — Houbový kuba
This mushroom and barley risotto has been eaten for many centuries. People used to fast on Christmas, and a meatless kuba became the perfect dish for this occasion. Ingredients like fried onion, garlic, fat, and black pepper are added for a richer taste.
#11 Tamales are wrapped in corn husks, not banana leaves.
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...
