When you think of Christmas, alongside wishes for snow, and children hoping for a visit from Santa, many reminisce about certain food and drink that is only available and consumed at this time of year. But, what do Brits want to feast on during this indulgent period? To reveal the nation’s most loved and disliked festive foods, Manchester-based hotel The Midland, surveyed 2,010 Brits to create the Festive Food Trends report which revealed the foods and dishes Brits love year after year, and those they want to relegate from the festive period.
It’s no surprise, pigs in blankets are the nation’s favourite Christmas food, with almost half (48 percent) stating this Christmas dinner staple as their most loved festive food.
Cheese and crackers follow with 47 percent claiming the after-dinner dish is their preferred Christmas food.
In terms of drinks, hot chocolate takes the top spot, with traditional mulled wine not even making the top five.
The study also found what foods are disliked the most, with smoked salmon taking the top spot.
