I do not have a favorite holiday food that I like, I remember the large choice of antipasti we had in Italy.

@LadyDuck I love Italian antipasti. I don't need a main course after a plate of antipasti.

For me it was going to a pub with a giant Xmas Buffet. I got in trouble for eating one of four lobsters added just for display purposes - it was very nice though

Favorite holiday food memory? I always enjoy the mashed potatoes! I more often remember spending time with my family though than the food we eat. Great question though

I have so many wonderful memories, but one of the best was the first time my husband made a fried turkey in our driveway. All the males participated in the making of it. And it was delicious!

@amadeo They are delicious! I always make a traditional turkey, too. One year, our son in New York City had Thanksgiving for us all. He has a courtyard off his kitchen and that's where all the guys made a fried turkey in my husband's fryer. Yes, we drove it into NY.

There are many to mention. For Christmas season, there should be the Ham and Queso de Bola. Of course the famous "lechon" or roasted pig is also something special. Then I also love Filipino delicacies like the "bibingka" or rice cake or "Biko" glutenous rice cake. "Pansit" (noodles) is also very common because it signifies long life according to some belief.
