Traditionally, turkey is a 'chosen favorite' holiday meal (not just for Christmas) because the bird is large enough to provide many servings. You'd have to cook about 5-7 fair sized utility chickens in comparison to ONE averaged turkey. Aside from that, turkey is a tad-bit more nutritious than red-meats, which is another reason it is favored for holiday celebrations.
