L’yilui Nishamt Avraham ben Ester.
Translated From Yalkut Yosef:
1. There are those who have the minhag (custom) to greaten the intake of dairy foods on Chanukah due to the Nes (miracle) with Yehudit and Nikanor (evil greek general). Yehudit fed Nikanor cheese to have him be thirsty. Then she gave him wine until he dozed off. She then sliced off his head! His entire army saw that he died so in a frenzy they fled in retreat for their lives. To remember this Nes, we eat dairy foods.
2. During Chanukah we have the minhag to eat foods with oil, such as Sufganiyot and Latkes, in order to remember he Nes with the Pach Shemen (jar of oil) in the Beit HaMikdash. Therefore, we eat a reasonable amount of oily foods all Leshem Shamayim (in the name of Hashem, meaning in respect and in the right context).
