Christmas is all about comfort. It's about painstakingly prepared hams, shamelessly stuffing your face with seconds and thirds, and falling asleep with visions of sugarplums and iPads dancing in your head.

But while you dined on holiday delicacies, some sat down to a plate of sadness. As you dozed off, belly stuffed full of ham, others were wide awake, stomachs unhappily murmuring, minds swirling with humiliation. We bring you their stories. God bless them, every one: The 25 worst struggle plates of Christmas.
