Japan's Strangest Christmas Tradition: A Bucket Of KFC
"Christmas isn't a national holiday in Japan ... yet a bucket of 'Christmas Chicken' (the next best thing to turkey - a meat you can't find anywhere in Japan) is the go-to meal on the big day. And it's all thanks to the insanely successful 'Kurisumasu ni wa kentakkii!' (Kentucky for Christmas!) marketing campaign in 1974." Smithsonian 12/14/12
