Why Is Chicken Strictly Associated With Christmas? Why Not Goats, Goose, Pigs. by Nobody: 4:03pm On Dec 25, 2013 |
A friend of mine asked me just now why chicken is so closely associated with the celebration of Christmas, and it made me wonder. Unlike rams, which were sacrificed, and thus a symbol for sallah, was does chicken have any symbolic meaning partaining Christmas? N.B: I've had my fair share of chicken wings today. |

Op,ur analysis isn't true, cos its economic melt down that forced chicken on us,when we can't afford cow nor goat. When I was younger,it was either cow or goat. Remember de adage "sweating like a christmas goat" it was never christmas chicken. |
