New Year’s Eve is a time for celebration, reflection, and making new resolutions for the year ahead. Many people around the world have their own traditions and customs for ringing in the new year.  In some countries, it is tradition to eat certain foods on New Year’s Eve in the hopes of bringing good luck for the coming year. For example, in Spain, it is common to eat 12 grapes – one grape for each stroke of midnight – and make a wish with each grape. In the United States, it is common to eat black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day for good luck, while in Germany, it is traditional to eat pork and sauerkraut on New Year’s Eve for good fortune.
