🎁🎄🎅🤶In Bolivia🇧🇴 Christmas is mostly a religious holiday spent with family, and not very commercial. Christmas processions carrying Baby Jesus into town take place in some villages and pretty much everyone goes to Midnight Mass at church. The traditional meal is 'picana', a stew/soup made from chicken, beef (or lamb) and pork which is served with potatoes and corn. There might also be salads, roast pork (lechón) or roast beef, and lots of tropical fruit. The “canastón” is another important Christmas tradition. A large gift basket, it is given by employers to their employees on the day prior to taking their vacation. The canastón is a simple, but usually large, basket (sometimes a plastic washtub is used), filled with basic food staples such as ketchup and mustard, bread, jam, crackers and cookies, sugar, rice, flour, and sometimes chocolates or candy.
