Most McDonald's are closed on Christmas. Some people get food from Chinese restaraunts though.

It was a jab at the President. Also, I spent way too much time in Japan because I didn’t understand why you thought fast food closes on Christmas and then I remembered that it’s a religious holiday in America.

KFC really has become a cultural tradition for Christmas in Japan. It’s not as universal now, but it’s still pretty common.

Traditionally, the Japanese eat fish/sushi/sashimi/shabu-shabu/ramen/expensive bentos, all sorts of stuff during the end of the year. Whatever each family prefers and can be prepared at scale.
