"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." -- Arthur Koestler
Yom Kippur?
I think the synopsis is only true of Hanukkah, Purim, and Passover.Tisha B'Av is the anti-example: They came to kill us; they won; let's fast.
Yom Kippur is not a 'holiday' so much as an obligation. (But in any case, the eating comes after sundown when the fasting is done. :) )
