You have to remember that these people are all kinds of crazy
They eat turkey at Christmas because that's what you do and it wouldn't be a proper Christmas without it. Even though they prefer all sorts of other food to turkey. The mind boggles. But then 'the mind boggles' is a fairly common response of mine to stuff they do and has been ever since Dave and I got together, and this is one of the more innocent ones, so it could all be worse....

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.

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

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