5 traditional New Year’s foods to bring good luck in 2021 TODAY 12/28/2020 Grace Parisi
After 2020, we want health, wealth and heaping gobs of good luck all year long. But are we being overly superstitious by thinking there are actually some foods that are more auspicious than others?
Superstition or not, why hedge our bets? These food-based rituals are not only fun, they re absolutely delicious.
1. Pork
The expression high on the hog refers to the choice cuts of pork, those from the loin, shoulder and upper leg, long reserved for the elite. The low on the hog cuts like belly, trotters and offal were left for poor folk. Not so today it s all good for all folks! So, naturally, pork, with its rich, delicious fattiness has come to symbolize wealth and prosperity. With so many options like sausage, ribs, bacon, ham, suckling pig, etc., there s no reason not to be in hog heaven for at least one day.
