Just when you think 2020 can’t get any stranger, a new survey has named brussel sprouts as the nation’s favourite vegetable for Christmas dinner – https://www.matalan.co.uk/christmas/christmas-day-plan

Matalan surveyed over 2,000 Brits to find out how we’re spending Christmas in 2020, looking at everything from what we’ll be wearing to what we’ll be eating. And according to their findings, the often-hated brussel sprout is the most popular vegetable for 2020, and the 5th most popular trimming overall.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the roast potato came out on top, with 65% of Brits saying their Christmas dinner would be incomplete without them, followed by gravy with 59%.

And in keeping with this weird year, 5% of Brits will be having tomato ketchup on their Christmas dinner this year!

Turkey remains the most popular meat, with 47% of Brits opting for this, followed by roast beef with 18%. Vegetarian and vegan options saw a drop in popularity this year, with a combined total of just 12%.

Finally, Matalan found that most Brits will be sitting down for their Christmas dinner between 2pm and 3pm, after speaking with family and friends over video call at 11am and cracking open the bubbly at 12pm!
