i've made three this year and all of them are marinading in brandy
edit 1: also why don't yanks ever talk about meat pies? all pies i've seen in american things are all sweet. savoury pies are awesome, how have americans not noticed this? a meat pie contains meat and a crap tonne of gravy, both things americans love.
WHHHHYYYYYYYYY no yankee meat pies?

We do have them, and we call them pot pies. They are usually individual servings, because Americans love meat and gravy so much that we don't want to share.
I am confused. Do Americans not do cake at Christmas?

My family's Christmas is Second Thansgiving, but with bonus desserts. Mostly pie, cookies, and candy *NM*

Or rather... Fifth Thanksgiving. Thanksgivings 2, 3, and 4 are all about Thanksgiving 1 leftovers. *NM*

We have different icing. It is not typically a very dense, flat sheet of solid icing. Like fondant.

There are other birds which it's "acceptable" to eat at Christmas, other than turkey.

Fruitcake, I guess. But we don't coat it with disgusting icing. And it's not really cake. *NM*
