Turkeys up and down the country will  be breathing a sigh of relief as it looks like their popularity at Christmas is on the wane. A survey of 3,000 consumers found that just 41 per cent planned to serve a traditional turkey, with beef, lamb and goose all increasing in the popularity stakes. The Food Standards Agency has reported that that while around 10 million turkeys were eaten in 2005, the figure will be more like 7 million this year.

While I’m sure lamb or beef would be delicious on Christmas Day, somehow I just can’t imagine it would feel as festive without a turkey on the table. On the other hand, I could definitely get on board with ditching another Christmas staple: the Brussels sprouts!
