There's an oddball NYC tradition of (not strictly observant) Jews going out for Chinese food on Christmas because those were the only restaurants that were open. The Chinese restarauteurs are appreciative, but sometimes mystified...

I had a friend in college who kept kosher, but ate shrimp because "G-d made them tasty for a reason". People make exceptions sometimes.
