Best Christmas Goodies - Jew Christmas, Kwanzaa, Pagan Winter Festivals, and Festivus also included

[MerriedxReldnahc]

Now that the holidays are undeniably approaching, it's time to make really bad food choices and load up on treats and fatty foods.
For me you can't have Christmas without chocolate from See's Candies. Truffles made by the Brigattine monks in Oregon are also awesome, my grandpa used to send us them in a box with other assorted goodies from Oregon every year.
I also intend to eat my weight in cheesy potato casserole and Yule log cake. What are yall getting fat on this season?

My mother makes amazing fudge for the Christmas season. That and snowball cookies are our holiday traditions.

 

[Randy Lahey]

Sugar cookies and those Lindt chocolate truffles.

 

[JSGOTI]

Spritz Cookies

 

[MG 620]

Soft Christmas cookies shaped like trees, santas and troons.

 

[Nekromantik]

Pan de polvo, tamales, those little cookies with the big chocolate kiss in the middle, gingerbread men, homemade hot coco and homemade eggnog.

In-laws usually make pork pernil. Dank af Puerto Rican pork shoulder.

I like those little torte-cake-whatevers that are in those Hickory Farms big boxes. My family would get a couple of variety packs from various relatives every year so we'd stay up Christmas Eve snacking on all that stuff and drinking and open our presents at midnight.

Ferrero rocher Chocolate, it was the chocolate my parents always gave me as a gift so it's very special to me. Now I bulk buy them in sams club during the holiday season.

Meat, cheese, cookies, candy, and booze.

Is booze REALLY a holiday special? You're part of the farms. Pretty sure each and every one of us are supposed to be alcoholics.

Swiss Colony spiced pumpkins are amazingly good.

They must be made of gold though, because they're too expensive to justify me ever buying them.

They're balls of pumpkin cake stuffed with cream cheese and covered with frosting. If you ever see them at a Christmas party or Thanksgiving dinner or whatever make sure you take as many of them as you can.
$20 for 12 of them holy shit
Luckily my dad loves these things even more than I do so I can count on getting some from him every year.
Swiss Colony is a catalog that sells all sorts of stuff, but their primary focus is on desserts and those boxes of fancy cheese and sausages that upper-middle class families buy for their boomer parents at Christmas. They're basically a food version of LL Bean, so everything they sell is expensive. They know people love their pumpkins so that's why the price for them seems to go up by a dollar every year.

They're so tiny...
They're like cake pop size, essentially. I bet I could convince my brother to make some...

If booze doesn't count, then I can always replace it with homemade bread.

My grandmother gets us food from Costco every yr.

Just make sure he doesn't do something lazy and use a boxed pumpkin cake mix to do it, because I guarantee you it won't come out as good.

 

[Pigeon On A Stick]

Hannukkah gelt. They need to make gelt an official currency.

 

[Sylvie Paula Paula]

Homemade apple cider doughnuts & the absolute fuckton of chocolate given as stocking stuffers.
