nani_ka the appropriateness of Turkey for Thanksgiving and Ham for Christmas (my family has traditionally done both meats for both holidays, she insists that Turkey is for Thanksgiving and Ham is for Christmas), it made me think; isn't serving HAM for your Christmas Dinner kind of Racist/Insulting towards your Jewish friends?
"This is OUR day! We have tons of presents! We have colorful decorations! We have peppy music about Jesus! And no you can't just drop by during dinner because we'll be having PORK! Screw you!"
I'm kind of surprised that the traditional Christmas dinner isn't Oyster Stew and Cheeseburgers!
