Culinary Christmas - December 9: The Christmas Song
Featured Foods: Chestnuts, turkey, Hoffman Beverages, danish
In the mid-1980s, during his stint on Saturday Night Live, Billy Crystal recorded this version of The Christmas Song featuring many impersonations that he used on the show, including Sammy Davis Jr., Fernando, Howard Cosell, Joe Franklin, and Muhammad Ali. It all seems quite dated now, but hey, at least he mentioned a couple of food items, namely "chestnuts roasting on an open fire!"
Other than that, I personally find this song very annoying. Do you?
