What food / drink do you buy ONLY at Christmas?

[exhaustedbeans]

Me and DP chatting about this earlier. Without fail the things we buy only in December are:

Pringles (they're just not a normal crisp to us if it's not Christmas )
J2O in the glass bottle - even though we'd never have them from a pub for example, bang on December they're there in the fridge! As a child we thought they were very posh so they've just become part of Christmas
Toblerone - they always tempt me when I've seen them in airports etc but no, no, no. Xmas only, soz.
After Eights - see above.

Anyone else?

Pate!
Never occurs to me during the year to buy it!

Definitely After Eights, Matchsticks, cheese other than your regular cheddar/feta etc..

Advocaat because I like to go back to the 80's and have a Snowball 😂

Nuts!

Party food. Come December all sense goes out the window and we live on pigs in blankets, breaded everything and cheese five ways.

Twiglets, pate, Stilton.

Cream
A cheeseboard
Mulled wine
Meat

Baileys

Prawn cocktail
Sausage rolls
Baileys
If I could find the little green bottles of snowball I'd definitely have them for 80's nostalgia - my grandma used to give them to us as kids!!
Sherry trifle

Port, pringles, camembert

Shloer

Tiger bread.

Turkey, pigs in blankets (and those two only for DC as OH and I are veggie). Mulled wine (I'd buy all winter long but I've not really found it outside of Christmas?), fancy cheese, several different types of crackers, tubs of quality Street/heros.

Shloer
Cheese board
Family packs of snacks/ posh crisps
Chocolate tubs
Party snack foods

Bloody love it!

Pate, Quality Street, Toblerone, black pudding,

Quality street - they're not even very nice but the smell when you open the tub is just Christmas to me.
Twiglets
Dry roasted peanuts
Pigs in blankets - I've actually just bought some reduced ones for the freezer to go with a normal chicken Sunday roast. Why do we only have them at Christmas?

Buck's Fizz

My SIL had some of the snowball bottles this year, she found them in Asda.

@Newdawnfreedom Co-op sell them! I've been drinking them all December £6 for 4 bottles though so I've not had many ....

Oh yes to Shloer too- goes with our J2O mentality!

Tunis cake, although sadly they have fallen in standard from what they once were.

Why do people call Matchmakers 'Matchsticks'?
