Sprouts are ok if you fry them at the end in some smoked streaky bacon and walnuts, and cranberry sauce is the best thing to go with turkey.
+1 for the pigs in blankets.

Tbh, I don't think that excuse really works. Plenty of xmas foods are cheap and easily obtainable, such as mince pies, nuts, sprouts etc. And if people really liked them that much they wouldn't be limited to xmas.
Calories? If that were an issue people would eat cheeseburgers once a year too.
things like goose cost £60 a bird and feed a lot of people, smae with turkey although don't know the cost.
Mince pies are great but when would you eat them?
are you just going to start munching an extra mince pie a day as a snack? that's where calories come into it, and again aren't available throughout the year, unless you make them.
Things like sprouts are hard to get hold of throughout the year.
Any special meal or a normal dessert I would be hard pressed to make the same dish twice in a year.

No different to Monsieur Kipplings apple pies.
If people liked them they would be available.
never buy them either.
people do like them, read this thread.
Just like people love hot cross buns and other seasonal treats, but shops will only sale them at the festive period.

Sausages wrapped in bacon are the light and the hope.

Regarding mince pies;
I did, and previous to your post there's nothing to suggest they do.

Anything as long as it isn't Turkey! 
I don't mind turkey, but I just find it dull dull dull!
Mince pies have to be up there, but I also like Christmas pudding with lashings of brandy butter and cream!

I clearly do need glasses then. Since prior to you post I don't see one post with love for the pies.
Pigs in blankets are awesome, I also very much like mince pies and the chopped nut, sprout mix thing my mother makes
On a side note, I will be trying Christmas pudding for the first time in my 24-and-a-bit year existence this year
