Christmas is right around the corner, and today we look at the many children across the globe are waiting for jolly old St. Nick! Santa is that one character we all know and love, with different cultures having different versions of this jolly Christmas icon. While Santa’s current appearance is widely attributed to Coca-Cola ads from the ‘30s, the big, roundish fellow with the long white beard is an image that many people from across the globe have no trouble recognizing.
While here in the U.S., Santa is known to enjoy a nice glass of milk with a plate of chocolate chip cookies, he tastes different delicacies from around the world too! In Ireland (where he’s affectionately known as Santy, he receives a treat of mince pie and Guinness, and in Denmark, he’s given rice pudding instead of cookies. Wherever in the world he may be visiting though, his face is sure to light up when he sees these desserts — fashioned after him — waiting for him with a warm glass of milk!
