Around here the tradition is to eat pork and sauerkraut for luck, what is the tradition where you live?

    This. DH is so excited about it. I, on the other hand, want to gag.

    Cabbage and sausage. I like it but I also like pork and sauerkraut, so I'd be lucky either way!

    My mother used to chase us down as kids to make sure we had at least one bite of pork and sauerkraut on New Year's Day.  I have been thinking about it and salivating for days! I can't wait! I'm being lazy and haven't got my croc-pot going yet, but I think I've decided to eat all my mother's tonight and have ours ready for all day feasting tomorrow.

    We do pork & sauerkraut, too... I love it but DH & SS won't touch it, so this year we're having sausage... I figure pork is pork, right?? lol.

    Either way, I hope you all have a lucky New Year!

    We eat corned beef, cabbage, and black eyed peas.  Then with each dong of the midnight clock we eat a grape (12 total)...so definitely trying all these this year since with LO coming...I'm eager for some good luck.

    We always had black eyed peas, cabbage and hog jowl. 

    Life got much better once I got old enough to figure out I could just tell my dad "no" when he tried to make me eat them... yuck. It makes the house smell soooo bad.

    Growing up in Ohio, we always had pork and sour kraut. And I always dreaded to sour kraut so my dad started making sour kraut balls which 'hide' the sour kraut in sausage and cream cheese and are breaded and deep fried...MMM! Now I live in NC and my DH insists that we eat collard greens and black eyed peas...ick :(
