For my Christmas dinners as a kid it was what we could afford and instead of turkey we had baked ham, chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes, gravy, various veggies, pecan and pumpkin pies unless we went to relatives houses, have a wonderful holidays everyone and thank you.😋🍗🥧🍰🍖😋
We had honey glazed ham or glazed ham much more affordable! And pretty much everyone I know did also! Turkey was Thanksgiving & the stuffing never came from a box I learned from my mom how to season stuffing you can smell it when it has enough! No measurements! The cranberry sauce Thanksgiving too! Usually Zucchini bread or banana nut bread! In the Zucchini bread add walnuts & chocolate chip's or one or the other!
We had a Capon when I was very young with creamed peas. I don’t remember what else until I was a bit older and remember traditional turkey, stuffing , cranberry sauce, veg, mashed potatoes, gravy. Sweet potatoes, pumpkin pie. We celebrated my bday that day. Still served🍂
So true, I'm 76 and all my kids, grand kids and other relatives still eat the same holiday foods I grew up on. If I was to change something my family would be very unhappy.
I'm a 60 year old bachelor and my family is all gone now so I'm all alone. However, I well remember our holiday dinners. For Christmas breakfast, instead of crumb cake we had poppyseed loaf and cheese buns. Dinner was always turkey with the herb stuffing, VERY simple (just bread, onion, parsley and celery) always made by my grandmother. She made the glazed ham for either Easter or mother's day. Of course we also had the cranberry sauce and she also made the candied yams. From scratch you know. We also had mashed potatoes and gravy. We never had soup or an appetizer like shrimp cocktail because my grandmother and the rest of the family felt we had enough food without them. And we DID! I ate that way until the late 1990's when death broke the family apart. I learned from my grandmother and every Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter I cooked a full meal for my father just like the meals I grew up on in the '70's. I did that until 2020 when he had to go into an assisted living due to Alzheimer's. I lost him last year...just before Christmas. He was pretty much the last one left at 94.
We still do the turkey and stuffing which is the same as your stuffing, nice and simple but we do have ham as well, we just don’t cook one anymore. On Christmas Eve we buy some slices at a deli since there aren’t too many of us left to eat a whole ham. You should see if any friends or neighbours are alone and get a few together and have a Christmas lunch or dinner. One can bring the mashed potatoes, one can make the stuffing, one can cook a chicken. 🐔
My family has been eating the same traditional food every year since I was a little girl, and I passed it to my children, and my children has passed it to their mashed potatoes, gravy, the traditional holiday food
We always had a big turkey that my mother would roast in the oven for hours and hours. She would awake at 5am and start. When us children would wake up, the aromas would fill the house. Her homemade stuffing was the best part for me, slathered in gravy.
Pumpkin bread, muffins, chocolate chip pumpkin cookies are at our house starting in September to late January! Pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Eve and pecan pie, too!
I Remember those Christmases, when we got up in the morning, you could smell the turkey. My Mum would get up at 4am to get it ready, we would have at least 15 for dinner😊
My mother always made mince pie. She used a mix (Nonesuch) that was sold in the stores. I've made mince pie filling from scratch using whiskey. No suet or meat allowed!
Loved prime rib!!! We would get a side of beef every year and we always had venison from the hunt and sent to the same butcher. We still wore hand me downs and lean budgets but always had full bellies.
For Christmas we usually had pot roast with carrots and potatoes and pumpkin pie, hot rolls, homemade whipping cream, fudge and other candy. Sometimes we also had farmhouse chicken and noodles.
Most of the Christmases I remember we either had ham or a beef roast. I think I served turkey at my Christmas as a newlywed. However, on Christmas of 2022 we had jambalaya. Then on Christmas 2023 we had chop suey. I know that's not traditional holiday food, but my family wanted to do something different.
Those are Muscles not Clams. I love them both though. I remember we always had Eggs and Bacon in the mornings at X mass time I can almost smell the aroma of it right now. Turkey and Cranberry Sauce for dinner. I was born in 73 so I don't remember much about X Masses back in the decade, too young but I miss it now. Thanks and Happy Holidays to come.
I for a little while use to enjoy Jagger Nog. Egg Nog spiked with Jägermeister, lots of Jager but not to much for then a cinnamon stick to go with it. I had that on X mass eve. I hate Egg nog now and I don't drink.
And they are also not "muscles". They are mussles. 🙃 Nevermind that one of the pictures of "cranberries" was of red currants... Of course, the mispronunciation of so many words by the computer voiceover doesn't help either. So. My Grinch tirade is done. And I am looking forward to our family fest!
I saw Chef Jean-Pierre when the shrimp were shown. He is my go-to chef on TH-cam. If you haven't watched his videos, please do. He tells you the reasons you do things that you never knew why you did them before. Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and God Bless all!
I thought I recognized him in the video! I think he is a great chef to watch and learn from! His explanations really help, and he demonstrates great choices of fundamental dishes to make!
I was born in 1965, so nearly my entire childhood was in the 1970s. However, my grandparents, who hosted our holiday dinners, came from immigrant families, so our holiday meals also observed old-country traditions. The centerpiece of our Christmas dinner was always ham. We just had turkey at Thanksgiving, there was zero chance we were having it again for another year, no matter how much I liked it. We had Ham, mashed potatoes & gravy, corn, rigatoni (my Italian Nana made it for every special meal - including every Sunday) - and that's where my memory of specific Christmas dinner items goes fuzzy. For dessert, that was the best part. Nana spent weeks making nut rolls, apricot rolls, and poppyseed rolls & Italian cookies - my great aunts would bring huge platters of cookies they made, too, all kinds of confections! We actually ate well all month! Nana was constantly baking all December. I miss those days with our huge extended family, getting together so Nana or Grandpap could see their brothers & sisters & nieces & nephews & great-nieces & great-nephews, etc., and swap homemade old-country traditional foods.
Never heard of these things when i was growing up at christmas in the 70's and my teenage years were in the 70's! I've heard of these thing's but not as Christmas traditions!
All these pics you show with families with crowns on… I’ve never known of that tradition until I read the Harry Potter books. Then I thought it was strictly a British tradition. I never heard of fellow Americans having those. I’ve only seen the Christmas popper things readily available around my area in recent years. Goes to show that our Christmas traditions really vary.
@@michelleb7399 You and another pull the ends and it snaps. You get a paper hat/crown, a riddle or joke and a small prize such as a key chain, small puzzle, pen, etc.
@ yeah, I’ve read about them in Harry Potter and other books. When I first read about them, I thought it was something made up for the Hogwarts or wizarding world. But then I saw them in some movie and read about them in other books. :) Ty
I’ve never heard of stroganoff for Christmas, or any special breakfast. No custard or meringue. Pumpkin pie and fruitcake. Never heard of fish stew on Christmas and I’m from San Francisco! I’m having prime rib this year! I don’t know anyone who had these other foods on Christmas.
That coffee cake looked good, but we never had that for Christmas breakfast. In fact we fasted, and had an early Turkey dinner, homemade egg noodles, perogies, borscht, my moms homemade light bread. My God my mom was a bread chef. Always pumpkin pie. I want prime rib, horseradish sauce, and brown gravy, with fresh pecan pie for this Christmas.
The only time in the 70s that we had prime rib was once a year when our parents would bring home a slice of it from the company Christmas party. My dad worked at one of the more expensive restaurants in town. We couldn't afford to eat there and we definitely couldn't afford prime rib no matter what kind of sale they had. We had dry turkey. I didn't learn to cook from my mom. I learned from my mother in law. She was the best. So now no dry turkey or lumpy gravy here. And still can't afford prime rib.
Mmm, breakfast of toast with marmite or marmalade or bowl of porridge. Xmas meal was turkey with stuffing, roast poatoes or mash, mashed carrots with parsnips, gravy ,bread sauce and cranberry sauce from a jar. Then Xmas pudding with brandy sauce or cream. For evening meal , salad with leftover turkey followed by Xmas cake or mince pies. Boxing Day was roast beef or pork. If turkey was too pricey, chiken or capon popular. That's the average British family Xmas cooking! 60s and 70s especially. Now we have Xmas with in laws who are vegetarian. This year we're off for a posh pizza meal!!!
From my reading of Italian-American memoirs, lasagna was always the centerpiece of a holiday meal. A turkey was only added to placate the American born grandchildren.
@@msbowling5My Italian Nana made ham & rigatoni for Christmas. There was no way she was making another turkey right after Thanksgiving. We had Ham for Christmas and Easter. Rigatoni for Christmas and every Sunday after mass. She also made anything my Czech grandpap wanted that was his family tradition, but I remember mostly we only followed Czech tradition for New Years.
This all from the US, people in the UK just did not and still do not eat these things. Egg Nog and Pumpkin cake are unique to the US. Our Christmas Dinner eaten around 1 - 2pm consists of : Soup (usually cream of vegetable) served with a crusty bread roll. Turkey & Beef, 2 types of stuffing, Pigs in blankets (susauge wrapped in bacon not pastry) Roast and mashed potatoes, 3 veg (usually carrots,sprouts and peas), cranberry sauce, horseradish sauce and turkey gravy, sometimes Yorkshire pudding. This is followed by Christmas Pudding with Rum custard. For those who do not like it there is usually ice cream. We have no room for anything else.
Onion soup? I remember it and am still gagging at the thought of those slimy onions slithering down my throat! 🤢🤮 Some people loved it, though. I think they invented "Binaca" breath drops soon afterward. 😅 We had Turkey 4 TG with rice stuffing as I didn't care for texture ecture of the he bread stuffing. We didn't stuff the Turkey, but fuxed the rice separately. Of vjurse there was mashed and gravy, 🫛 peas, cream 🌽 and asparagus spears with cheesy sauce than Holinday. For Christmas we hadvthe Christmas Ham along with potatos augraten along with the 🫛 and cream corn, the asparagus with cheese sauce and my favorite cressent rolls. Pumpkin pie was a must and a pecan pie for my mother (too swe 4 me).
What I find so sad about this video is that they left out mashed potatoes, greens, green beans, biscuits, corn, corn bread, banana pie/pudding and bread pudding. They hit the East and West Coasts along with the Midwest, but completely left the South and Pacific West out as if these places didn't exist. 😤
I’ve never understood why American coffee cake has no coffee in it. Snowballs in custard? You mean isla flotante. Also that’s pigs in duvets, not pigs in blankets. Pigs in a blanket is sausage wrapped in bacon. In the UK, we still eat turkey and stuffing for Christmas.
Uh, I grew up in the 70's. They took the dollar off of the gold standard and rampant inflation resulted. OPEC put the squeeze on America. No one I knew had the money to enjoy this Christmas menu. We ate turkey, stuffing, yams, mashed potatoes, broccoli, beans and Farm Store egg nog.... it would have been nice though to enjoy such a feast.
Those are not cranberries, this is red currant 0:48 and 5:06 and I guess red and black currant is forbidden in some states of the US because they carry some bacteria that destroys pines.
YES😂😂😂😂, EVERYTHING HERE, GOES ON & ON!!!!!!HA, HA, HA, WE AIN 'T GIVIN ' THESE IDEA S UP, WE RE WAITING ON TRUMP TO "FIX IR", STILL OUR TRADITION, HA!😂😂❤❤❤❤❤

Every Christmas Day throughout the 70s and 80s My grandma always had prime rib and home made raviolis for dinner. I miss those days.
At age 75 I can tell you that they ate the same foods in 1974 that we eat in 2024.
So true, I'm 76 and all my kids, grand kids and other relatives still eat the same holiday foods I grew up on. If I was to change something my family would be very unhappy.
I agree. I am 76 so I lived through it!
What I do like about this video is it's giving great ideas for the upcoming Holiday. And with TH-cam it's easy to find the recipes .
❤
Now wants to prime rib
Except the premise of the video is junk because many of these foods are still in play today. 😂
@PinkieJoJo
But if it gives you ideas for something different from your average holiday dinner. Then it's a good video
Still love that pumpkin bread!! 🎃🎃

Cook for friends...single, couples, or see what you can do to help out at a Senior Center, or other kitchens that cook for those who need a hot meal.
Most sincere condolences. I am only 56 but everyone has passed on. I still will do holiday meals though for me and friend :)
Bless you! So sorry for your loss. It is so hard when the family becomes less and less around the table.

I thought mince meat pies or empanadas had meat and raisins.🤷♀️
My mother used to make divinity and fruit cake among many others.
Loved prime rib!!! We would get a side of beef every year and we always had venison from the hunt and sent to the same butcher. We still wore hand me downs and lean budgets but always had full bellies.
Now I am starving. The pumpkin bread looks so delicious 😊
I'm from the South, and the only thing shown on this video that we ate was glazed carrots. We were all about the ham and macaroni and cheese.
Thank you for sharing!

I grew up in Phoenix and we had tamales for our Christmas dinner. Never store bought and always home made.
Absolutely. This is a charming video, but left out so many food traditions from all the immigrant streams in the U.S.
