Please tell us about your Christmas and winter holiday traditions. What foods do you eat to celebrate? When do you open gifts?

Also, what do people do on Boxing day?

Based on the many movies We know Brits eat roast goose on Christmas.

We put up trees at the beginning of December and have mince pies. Also we exchange presents on Christmas day and listen to Christmas songs.

Do your mince pies have meat in them or only fruit?

A look up of UK Mince pies says once upon a time made with minced Lamb.
Look up of what You may eat on Christmas -
"Dutch Christmas dinners usually consist of venison, goose, hare, or turkey with plenty of vegetables and Kerstbrood (Christmas bread). The Dutch also celebrate by eating gourmetten, a hot plate on which diners place a set of mini pans containing their choice of meat or vegetables."

We have a traditional roast turkey dinner with a Christmas pudding for dessert. We have little table pyrotechnics called crackers which contain a small knick-knack and a paper crown and a dad joke. Usually eaten in the afternoon. It's a day of feasting and indulgence: most people tend to go into a food coma in front of the TV and watch the King's speech and any Christmas specials. In the popular soap operas there's a tradition that somebody dies at Christmas.

Mince pies do not contain any meat, it's a fruit filling.

Boxing day is just a second day in the holidays, it's good to recover before you go back to work. There are usually sales that happen on this day.
