We are finally roasting the turkey we bought for New Year's. I am so hungry and have been smelling the aroma for hours. I can't wait to eat some of it. What are you eating today? What food did you eat for the holidays? Do you have traditional foods for the holidays?

@Deepizzaguy Nice. Its crazy how Hamburgers from a restaurant is about the same price as fast food. This world is something else right now.

I can smell the turkey roasting from here! I just ate some chicken nuggets with roast potatoes and carrots for lunch. I've got sliced turkey thawing in the fridge for supper late tonight.

@akalinus We mostly eat beef or chicken so adding turkey to something makes it seem more "exotic" than it really is. I make a lot of pasta during the year and adding turkey makes it more delicious.

There seems to be a lot of turkey around. Chicken nuggets are especially good.

I am eating a crazy crust pizza. I had turkey over the holidays and had some turkey veggie soup earlier with some of the leftover turkey.

This morning, I ate a chocolate chip muffin. It was tasty and filling. I want to eat another one but my jeans are getting tight so I try to resist temptation.

I don't know what any of those foods are but I am betting that they are sweets or traditional foods. Do you have a holiday or festival anytime during the Christmas/New Year period?

@akalinus No; not near Christmas; but we have "Makar Sankranti" in the middle of January. You are right. Most of these dishes are sweet. All of them are loved across India. Most people enjoy puri and potatoes as breakfast. All these are our traditional foods.

We turkey tired out, but may go back if chickens keep costing so much. I do not get it. If its about bird flu, Turkeys birds too, why are chickens eggs so much?[ Any way, think we just doing poor people food spam and mac n cheese or something.

They use avian flu as an excuse to slaughter the chickens if there is flu in the area. Chicken that are not there cannot lay eggs.
