A big bucket or three of KFC with a bunch of sides isn't all that uncommon a solution to family-gathering dining in certain circles (probably a regional component, too?), so it'd be fair to say they're a pretty popular choice for any holiday save maybe Thanksgiving, I'd think.

It is also true in my case. My extended family still gets KFC every Christmas Eve.

My mother claims this was tradition in her house growing up as well. I think KFC was a little more upscale back then and eating out at all was considered luxurious.

KFC became sketchy over the decades due to corporate penny-pinching. But our local grocery store (Albertson's) makes a better quality version for roughly the same price.

We don't have a KFC Christmas tradition, but it is my guilty pleasure.

We always got Chinese food.
