　　　　Cornmeal Porridge According to legend, the traditional Christmas turkey originates from the Americas, and on Thanksgiving and Christmas — two major holidays — turkey is an indispensable traditional dish. In the United States, there is also a special dish served at Christmas dinner: roasted cornmeal porridge topped with a layer of cream and mixed fruits, which is sweet, delicious, and has a unique flavor. Some families also have the custom of placing a roast suckling pig on the Christmas dinner table. People in the UK and the US often like to put an apple in the pig’s mouth, a tradition said to originate from large families, as only they could afford to eat a whole pig. Later, those who liked to show off began to follow this practice when hosting Christmas dinners.
