Christmas Turkeys
19 Answers
At a quiz last week the question was , How many turkeys are eaten at Christmas in the UK. The answer given was 11 million. I think that answer is complete rubbish as that would mean one turkey for every five people. On a site on the internet is said 15 million.which is even worse. Nobody Knows.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I've no idea what the answer is, but I've gotta agree that I think that 15 million turkeys is way too much. Assuming approx 60 million population - that's 1 turkey for every 4 people.
What we really need to know is, over what exact time frame these figures represent ... is it just on Xmas day, a week, 2 weeks ... that might make a difference ??

Hard to say because the statistics gathered may be for different questions if different sources were used. Then again someone may have answered yes even if they only had a turkey sandwich.
Questions could be
Did you have turkey at Christmas?
Did your family share a turkey at Christmas?
Did you have a turkey dinner at Christmas?
or even
Have you ever had a turkey at Christmas?
