      Actually, my tastebuds are loving proof of that statement being incorrect. See, I do not like dried fruit and especially do not like it in cookies and sorts of baked goods like that. Yet I do not mind a well made fluffy "melt in your mouth" fruit cake. I love it even more with chocolate chips but that is a different story.
      As for Christmas pudding, I have always seemed to love anything with pudding. But I do not particularly like Christmas pudding. Something about the flavor doesn't feel right for me. I can eat it, I do not hate it I just do not love it as much as I love other puddings. I find it very odd because I usually LOVE those kinds of things, but not Christmas pudding.

    As much as it is in a way cheating, the Schwartz mulled wine spice is honestly a lifesaver when making mulled wine at home!
    Or you can just buy some good ol' Gluhwein from Aldi!
    ALSO: Mincemeat is so called because they used to contain meat! Nowadays it consists of dried fruits, candied peel and fresh orange and apple.
    I made it a couple years back and it's a fun if not slow process! You combine your fruits, sugars, fat (commonly shredded vegetable suet!) and spices in a large heatproof bowl/casserole dish. You mix them all together and leave overnight so that the flavours intensify. You then bake it low and slow for a couple of hours and cool, stirring regularly to ensure that as the fat re-solidifies, it is well distributed throughout the mixture, then you finish by adding in an alcohol (Brandy typically, but I used a dark rum for more treacle flavour!) and popping it into jars.

    In regards to Christmas Markets, the way I see it is that it is something like an Alpine Village that is setup once a year in several different cities during that time, where they will have several booths and stalls serving various foods and items. In the Los Angeles area, along with Alpine Villages, the have an area called Santa's Village, which is more of a small amusement park or carnival.

    LOL when he put the Clementine segments in to the Mulled Wine! 😂
    No you poor little lamb, you are supposed to chop the clementine in to slices or wedges. I also recommend adding a couple of table spoons of brown sugar and a shot or two of Amaretto if you want a sweeter mulled wine. 😄

      Yeah, but it's not nearly as common, I don't think - at least not in the Southeast. I've never heard anybody mention eating mince pies or bring one to a potluck.

    The American forgot Xmas tamales. I realize he’s not from the Southwest, but they should’ve at least been mentioned, they are the tastiest Xmas tradition of all! With New Mexican red chile, my mouth is watering just thinking about them.
