One of the best ways to start out your new year is by eating a lucky food on New Year’s Day. Most lucky foods are traditions passed down from generation to generation, some dating back thousands of years.

What are these lucky foods for the New Year’s Day?

Black eyed peas and cabbage/or cornbread:

The most well know to southerners this tradition in America dates back to at least the Civil War era.

Grapes: some have thought that eating a specific amount of grapes on the new year could bring luck.

Pork: In some European countries pork is served on New Year’s Day.

Most meals are prepared and served on the first day of the year, but some people think that New Year’s eve is also an important time.
