“I’ll definitely be tucking into the Sainsbury’s Brussel Sprout and Parsnip Bhajis on Christmas Day.”

The esteemed institution has previously seen the likes of Morgan Freeman and Anna Wintour debate before Sainsbury’s pitted Gemma Collin to decide the fate of the Christmas argument.

Christmas Day is just over two weeks away, but the nation is still split over what to serve at the table this year, with over half (51%) wanting an alternative to a traditional turkey and the average household serving at least three main dishes to satisfy everyone.

Sainsbury’s Director of Product and Innovation, Claire Hughes said: “The nation is split down the middle on the traditional versus modern Christmas debate, and it is so intriguing to see how traditional dishes are evolving.
