People divided over whether to serve Yorkshire puddings with Christmas dinner

Christmas won't be quite the same this year but food will still be a key feature for most of us.

While it might be a smaller affair for people up and down the UK, Christmas dinner will still be special.

You can almost smell the turkey roasting already and hear the crispy potatoes crackling as they cook.

And while really, there aren't any proper 'rules' when it comes to Christmas dinner, people do feel strongly about what should be on the plate reports the Mirror.

This means not everyone will be lucky enough to have Yorkshire puddings with their turkey.

When it comes to Yorkshire puds we are a divided nation - after all, tradition dictates that those fluffy pillows of beautiful batter are reserved for beef.

So forget what you call a bread roll, ask your northern/southern (delete as appropriate) mates if they have a Yorkshire pud at Christmas.

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, (we think they go with everything so we'll take two please.)

After the year we've all had we say do what you want!
