We also eat special food on New Year's Eve which we lovingly refer to as "Fry Night". Molly doesn't allow Jake to have much fried food throughout the year, but she let's down her guard on "Fry Night." This year's Fry Night included, Chicken Wings, Chicken Nuggets, Cheese Sticks, Fried Donuts, and Fried Zucchini. We had a few other things ready to fry as well, but our gall bladders were pretty much at the breaking point.
On New Year's Day, we went a little more traditional with Sauerkraut and Pork.
In many cultures, eating special food on New Year's Day is thought to bring good luck. Here are a few Lucky New Year's Day food items from around the world:
