Christmas is a time of festivity in the family or the community celebrating and having Christmas dinner together. Turkey is a big fowl and can be served to many people unlike a smaller bird like a duck or chicken.Similarly pork meat is tender and from a medium sized animal suitable for a large gathering.
In 16th Century England, Christmas was indeed the time to 'eat, drink and be merry.' And food was at the heart of the festivities. For the wealthy, the goose was declared by Queen Elizabeth I as the bird to eat on Christmas. Turkey was also consumed, as well as other various meats.
