There are other birds which it's "acceptable" to eat at Christmas, other than turkey.

Which makes sense if you think about it, given that turkeys are native to North America. Goose is the number two choice, and duck also works. Do you and Dave's folks like either of those?
Or you could go Kiwi and have colonial goose, which is hogget (young sheep, slightly older than lamb). When the first settlers arrived, they didn't have any geese (which at that time was the no. 1 choice) so they pretended .
(I keep asking for goose at Christmas, but somebody keeps vetoing it...)

I am confused. Do Americans not do cake at Christmas?

My family's Christmas is Second Thansgiving, but with bonus desserts. Mostly pie, cookies, and candy *NM*

Or rather... Fifth Thanksgiving. Thanksgivings 2, 3, and 4 are all about Thanksgiving 1 leftovers. *NM*

We have different icing. It is not typically a very dense, flat sheet of solid icing. Like fondant.

Fruitcake, I guess. But we don't coat it with disgusting icing. And it's not really cake. *NM*
