what to eat before christmas

I see advent as a detox or purification. Giving up animal products and clean the body and spirit. Advent products found in stores seem to be designed exactly the opposite: ultraprocesate, chemicalize, with many 'empty' calories, additives, ingredients of very poor quality (sugar, margarine, white flour, soy syrup, glucose / fructose, etc.). . What to eat in advent ? Optimal vegan diet !

If you have any reason to give up meat, "pate", frankfurters and cheese (religious, ethical, ecological) then you find a product that imitates meat? If you want to cleanse your body that you stuff with sugar, starch and industrial waste? If you think quitting animal fat margarine and cooking oils have any health benefits? Do you think that is due to loosing weight of the advent somehow sweets "advent"or just malnutrition?
