Chanukah is celebrated by the Jewish religion.
The Judaism celebrates the eight day long festival Chanukah (Hanukkah) by eating latkes. This holiday is all to remember the miracle of the oil that lasted eight days instead of one, and so we eat food that is fried in oil as latkes are grated potatoes fried in oil.
Hanukkah is a Jewish holiday that is celebrated by Jewish people worldwide. It commemorates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem and the miracle of the oil that burned for eight days.
