Food seems to be a popular theme when it comes to New Year's traditions.
In the South people like to eat black-eyed peas, cornbread and greens on New Years Day for good luck. Another German New Year's tradition is to bake a pig figurine inside a cake - similar to the Mardi Gras King cake tradition of New Orleans. The person who gets the pig will have good luck. Pig gifts are also exchanged for good luck in Germany. Another tradition calls for the family's table to have a healthy spread of food at midnight to ensure an abundance throughout the year.
