Why Do We Eat Chicken On Christmas Day? by Nobody: 3:25pm On Dec 19, 2015
for years now i have been wondering why Nigerians always connect christmas with eating of chicken, as in whether you have been eating it everyday does not matter but what matters is that on that 25th of december a fowl must be killed, so guys why do we eat chicken on christmas day?

What is so special about chicken?... an evidence of the effects of poverty and hunger on the mentality of the average Nigerian man...

Exactly, softappless please see here

Red meat is much worse for u, has a higher fat content and is essentially just the devil grin
White meat is actually not meat, technically, it's "poultry". It's easier on ur liver & cholesterol lvls.

Turkeys were first bought into Britain in 1526,
before this time, for Christmas meals people
used to eat geese, boars’ head and even
peacocks. Turkeys were eaten instead of cows and chickens because the farmers needed their cows more for their milk, and needed their
chickens for the eggs, which back then were
more expensive than they are today. So
instead of killing off one of their livestock for
Christmas, they’d have a turkey as it was
something different and they could save their livestock to produce more milk and eggs. Henry VIII was the first person to eat a turkey
on Christmas Day, however it wasn’t until the
1950’s that the turkey was a more popular
Christmas meal choice than the goose.
thanks to google.
