My sister lives in Nanjing. Two years ago she looked for a turkey. Nanjing people didn't know "turkey". They thought she wanted to buy a spicy chicken.

圣诞节到了，每年期待吃火鸡。

]]> <![CDATA[By: tiaopidepi]]> The pickings are slim on Taobao, Jenny. I see a bunch of rubber turkeys for sale (unknown in America!) but very few turkeys made of meat. The only one I see appears to already be cooked! On the second page there's a frozen one, and a bunch of baby food jars. 好吃！

My sister settled for chickens. It was a fine Thanksgiving dinner despite the lack of turkey. She also had to use lingonberries (from IKEA) in place of cranberries. Shanghai may have all kinds of Western food but Nanjing was pretty traditional.

Did your parents give you two presents on birthday/Christmas day when you were a child?
