Heyy, every year I have the argument with friends and family on whether or not Yorkshire Puddings go on a Christmas dinner. So settle it for me, do they? |

Where exactly is the argument here? Anyone of sound mind knows that Yorkshire puds belong on a Christmas dinner.
If you are sitting down to Christmas dinner and there are no yorkies then it is perfectly acceptable to throw a sprout at the host.

If there are no Yorkshire puds, do you really think there are going to be sprouts!! |

Nobody could be savage enough to omit both, surely?
I suggest if both yorkies and sprouts are missing then excuse yourself from the table and flounce to the nearest petrol station and purchase yourself a pot noodle and a bottle of blue nun. |

What is this hell of which you speak?
In the event that there are no Yorkshire puds, sprouts or roast potatoes then you need to reevaluate your life choices, what did you do wrong to be faced with the barren dinnerware before you? |

According to a YouGov survey from 2016 on what people want at the dinner table on Christmas Day, only 47 percent of people would opt for a Yorkshire pudding. For many, the tradition that they aren't served with white meat holds strong - and we suspect it'll cause a row or two.
But it's Christmas have what you like.  |

What if they are 'Carb-free for Christmas'?
No roasties, Yorkies, sausages, stuffing, bread sauce (if you are that way inclined..)

"With 3 boys, there would be absolute anarchy in our house if they were missing from any roast dinner, especially Xmas!"
Maybe they would evict you there and then |

Only the Spawn of lucifer would evict roasties, sprouts and yorkie puds from the christmas dinner plate. I suggest if that is the case today then perform an Exorcism on them immediately |

It is the ruination of the Christmas spirit that Yorkshire Puddings endow in the meal, hence it is forbidden on a Christmas meal so as not to demean its lofty status as an annual celebration to one of a weekly basis. |

So I mainly had this argument with my ex, but more recently I've had it with lads at work and I just want some answers! |

"Christ any minute the Yorkshire folk will be on here causing another war of the roses. They’ll hang you in Yorkshire for omitting their puddings on a Christmas dinner. They’re a simple folk that Yorkshire lot, still living in their mud huts in Leeds
Proud Lancastrian that does enjoy a Yorkshire pudding occasionally  "
Even though it is a Yorkshire sourced food we don't have puddings on Christmas day. Only on a normal Sunday roast but not on today's dinner |

No. Not traditionally but I know plenty of people that have them.
I need to say it loudly. YORKSHIRES ARE NOT PART OF A CHRISTMAS DINNER but you can have them if you want to. |

Not on my Christmas dinner they don't.
I associate Yorkshire puddings only with Roast beef.
Besides, with all the other standard traditional extras that go with Christmas dinner there isn't any room on the plate left for a Yorkshire pud! |

If having a yorshire pudding on your plate at Christmas makes you happy then go for it! Christmas is about doing Christmas your way
Yorkshire puddings make me very happy

Big plate in the middle of the table with loads stacked up on it like a pyramid.
If you like them they're there to take and if you don't you don't  |

Yorkshire pudding should be made in a large square baking tray, one pudding that is sliced and shared between the family. It is served as the first course, with gravy, so that the children won't be so hungry with the small piece of meat that is all the family can afford.

Years ago kids were terrible eaters and didn’t eat beef dinners
Then 1 day I said do Yous want cakes with your dinner and they looked at me as if Ide 10 heads
But they said yes - to this day the 17 cuts up his beef puts it into the Yorkshire pudding and a bit of gravity and eats it like a cake |

"Definitely, I'd have yorkies with everything if I could
Main meal or with jam
Awesome things "
A few years back my fridhe/freezer was almost empty so I made yorkers stuffed with cheese was so good |
