After going down millions of chimneys in a single evening – and delivering trillions of presents – is a mince pie and a glass of sherry really the best we can do for Father Christmas? It’s a resounding ‘no’ from Britain’s youth. A new poll by data creation company, Walr asked under 25 year-olds which food they thought Santa would actually like on Christmas Eve, when he finally gets a chance to put his feet up after all the presents have been delivered.

 
Nationally, a piping-hot pizza (32%) was the food choice most people thought Father Christmas would most enjoy when all the presents have been delivered. And if there was also room for pudding, 20% of respondents said he’d also enjoy a delicious dessert (20%).
 
There were different opinions around the UK, however, perhaps reflecting regional food preferences:

·      In the West Midlands, people were most likely to advocate a nice spicy curry for Father Christmas on Christmas Eve (22%).

·      Pie and mash was the top choice for people in East Anglia (32%), whilst folk in Yorkshire and Humberside would serve Santa up some traditional fish and chips (26%).

·      Londoners were most likely to believe Father Christmas might in fact be a vegetarian and they were most likely to say they would leave him a veggie lasagne (10%) and a Greek salad (8%).

·      People in Scotland (25%) were most likely to not pick any food option because they didn’t believe Father Christmas actually existed. 

 
Reacting to pizza topping the poll nationally, Andy Collins at The Pizza Company commented: “It’s very likely that Father Christmas will want something tasty and filling to eat after his long shift on Christmas Eve. People may also have picked pizza because it’s a food choice they themselves like to share and enjoy with loved ones. At The Pizza Company we are adding a festive pizza to our range so technically, Father Christmas could be the first person to have Christmas lunch early.”
