Special meal on New Years day for good luck?
We have always had pork and sauerkraut on New Years day and were both told by our families it was good luck to eat it.
Do you have something that is traditional to eat on New Years?

We always have Alaskan King Crab as our main course, along with a good salid. It's our tradition, expensive, but delicious. Happy New Years!

Eggnog with spiced rum for eye opener. Pork chops for the breakfast meat. Black eyed peas as a dinner vegetable at least.

I usually eat anything that isn't nailed down. New Year's Eve we have Must Goes. The items that must go before the ritual of promising to change our eating habits.

I thought we would have a little regionalism.
One black eyed peas and one pork and sauerkraut and one crab.

Nothing in particular. I have some native Hawian friends that have Traditionally always had fish. Reason a fish always swims forward thus forward to the new year.

I'm from the South & always have pork, black eyed peas & collards on New Year's Day. The black eyed peas represents coins, the collards green backs (paper money) & I think the pork is for health or good luck. Not sure that it works but I'm not going to take any chances by not doing it. Happy New Year!

This year, I came across the kiosk in Publix where they cook and hand out samples and they were making something called "Lucky Pork and Beans". It is sort of like a chili that contains slow cooked pork butt roast, black eyes peas, and instead of collards, it has a premixed kale salad kit mixed in it. There are some other ingredients as well, but it was very good and I will be making some tomorrow. |
