In just a few days, families across the country will plate up and tuck into a feast of turkey, pigs in blankets, piles of potatoes and all the trimmings. Yet the debate about what should (and shouldn't) be featured on the Christmas dinner plate continues to divide our nation.
So, we'd like to settle the debate once and for all. Should the humble Yorkshire pudding be part of a Christmas dinner? When we floated the idea with our Facebook readers, there certainly seemed to be plenty of opinions. And a lot of people were only too happy to declare that Yorkies would definitely be making an appearance on their plates on Sunday.
Sharon Farquharson reckons Yorkshire puddings "should be a part of most meals" whilst Morgan Moir said she'd "have them with every dinner or even better, a plate full of just them for dinner." Lesley Manning goes one step further and suggests having them as a starter with onion gravy and even a bit of stuffing.
Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
Tori Johnstone said: "Given it’s just a basic roast chicken dinner for my house for Christmas dinner then yes Yorkshire puddings are part of our dinner!" But not everyone agreed. Irene Lockhart said that she's never had one at Christmas - and doesn't remember having one at all as a child, even though she had a roast every Sunday.
And Vivienne Gaynor wrote: "Not part of Christmas dinner. They should only be served with roast beef." Frank Barclay appeared to echo this sentiment, noting that Yorkshire puddings belong with roast beef on New Year's Day.
So, we want to know if you think Yorkshire puddings should be included in a Christmas dinner? If you'd like to share your opinion, drop it in the comments and we'll highlight the best ones.
