1. Germany’s Advent Calendars:
Originating in Germany, Advent calendars are now global. With tiny doors revealing treats for each December day, it’s a delightful countdown to Christmas.
2. South Africa’s Caterpillar Delicacy:
Share the story of how, in parts of South Africa, a Christmas delicacy is the deep-fried caterpillars of the Emperor Moth.
3. Japan’s KFC Dinner:
An interesting marketing campaign led to the Japanese adopting a unique tradition: feasting on KFC for Christmas dinner!
4. Finland’s Peaceful Declaration:
On Christmas Eve in Finland, a ‘Declaration of Christmas Peace’ is read in various cities, heralding the beginning of the festive season and emphasizing the importance of peace.
5. Portugal’s Consoda Feast:
