Eat for luck
New Year's Day is coming. In China, we eat
fish to celebrate the New Year. Then what about Americans? Of course, Americans
also enjoy many lucky foods.
As you know, the USA has many immigrants from Europe. They have brought
many lucky foods from Europe to the country. For New Year's Eve d, Americans of Austrian descent(血统) always have a kind of lovely
cookies. These cookies are pink, and they are in the shape of a pig. Pigs are a
lucky s in Austrian culture.
However, Americans of German or Polish
descent think of another food as New Year's luck. It's herring(鲱鱼). Interestingly, we m eat it at the stroke of midnight, and then all
the wishes may come true.
In Italy, lentils(兵豆) stand for money, and fatty pork
sausages stand for wallets. Americans of Italian descent usually eat them t. Wow! So“rich”! To Americans of German or Irish descent, there is even a v used as a slang term(俚语) for money. It's the cabbage. They believe that eating cabbage can
bring them more wealth in the coming year. Now do you want to get all the good
luck for the coming year? Please plan a dinner around the lucky foods!
