Mincemeat? Oh, no.... The horror!!! My mother and my husband like it, so there is usually one at Thanksgiving or Christmas.
Now how about Christmas - aka Suet - pudding? Yes, there is suet in it. But not that much, really, and fat is fat is fat. Ahhh, that I love. Well, my recipe, which is more dates and less raisins. But nobody else will touch it now that Dad is gone, so that has gone by the wayside.
