Here is some tips about what you should and shouldn't eat tonight at your New Year's party.

Black eyed peas and lentils are said to bring riches and safety for the coming year. Eating pork is said to be lucky since they eat moving forward. Poultry is said to be unlucky to eat since they scratch at the ground for food. It is said that this will bring poverty. One good luck superstition from Spain says to eat twelve grapes at midnight. One for each stroke of the clock. Lobsters should also be avoided since they walk backwards.
