Why Eat Dairy and Oily Foods on Chanukah?

The time-honored custom of eating oily and dairy foods on Chanukah is well known, and often bemoaned by dieters during the festive week. But what are the origins of this odd custom? To answer that question, we must first add another layer of inquiry: It is also a custom on Chanukah for women to refrain from all forms of work after the Chanukah candles are lit, and they are obligated as much as men in the lighting of the candles. As it turns out, all these customs can be explained through a dark tale that is said to have occurred thousands of years ago.
