As Christmas is very nearly here, we though we would share some fun festive trivia to keep you all entertained!

Toilet Brush Tree

Fake Christmas Trees date back to 1886, and were made in London from green raffia, which was more commonly used to make grass hula skirts. Other early versions were made from dyed goose feathers, and bristles more traditionally used to create toilet brushes!

Banana Christmas Trees

In the absence of the traditional fir tree, Christians in India celebrate by decorating banana and mango trees instead!

KFC for Christmas?

In Japan, KFC has become an important part of the Christmas tradition, with five to ten times the normal sales being made over the festive season!

Gifts in Shoes?

We're all familiar with the famous Christmas stocking, but in the Philippines, they have slightly different version on this tradition. Children leave their polished shoes and freshly washed socks on the window sill, for the Three Kings to leave presents in as they pass through the house at night.

This Nativity Stinks! 

In Catalonia, a figure called 'Caganer' is included in their nativity scenes, which displays the form of a defecating man!

Pick the Pickle

In the United States, families hide a pickle decoration somewhere on the Christmas tree, for family members to hunt out. The first person to find it is usually rewarded with a small gift, and is said to have good fortune for the following year. Although this tradition was originally thought to have originated in Germany, people now believe it to be wholly American Christmas idea.  

'Hark the Herald (silence)'

There is no mention of angels singing anywhere in the Bible, which means that your entire childhood nativity memories were all a lie!

Groovy Oven Gloves Make Great Christmas Presents

Oven gloves. Pretty much every kitchen has them, but they don't tend to be the most eye-catching of kitchen accessories, do they?

Not unless your oven gloves come from Gadget Inspector. We've got a great selection of novelty oven gloves available, and if there's a baker in your family, our awesome oven gloves will make the perfect presents for them!

The Home Run Oven Mitts [no longer available] will bring a bit of the baseball field into the kitchen - those calorific cakes might seem a little less naughty if you pretend to be engaged in some sort of sporting activity beforehand. Still, if the sporting life isn't for you, perhaps you'll prefer these Knitted Oven Gloves, designed to look like they were cut out from a homemade Christmas jumper, but just as padded and protective as any good pair of oven gloves.

Factor in the Pixel Hand Oven Mitts we mentioned yesterday and you're spoilt for choice! No matter what kind of personality your favourite baker has, Gadget Inspector is sure to have the perfect pair of Oven Gloves for them.
