What do people around the world eat for good luck in the new year?

Donut

Ring-shaped foods are said to symbolize a full year ahead. For breakfast, try a delicious bundt cake or a classic donut. For a healthier option, try baking them instead of frying them.

Longevity noodles

The longer the noodles, the longer the life. At least that’s what many people believe. Traditionally, during Lunar New Year, extra-long soba noodles symbolize longevity. Just be careful not to break them as you move them from bowl to mouth.

Eat whole fish

Legend has it that eating the whole fish, including head, tail and body, will ensure good health and good fortune throughout the year. Additionally, the shiny scales resemble coins, promising a prosperous new year.

Green vegetables

The good fortune behind green leaves comes from their appearance. Their color and shape resemble folded bills, making them a symbol of wealth and prosperity. That’s why many people eat cabbage on New Year’s Day. Many people also eat cabbage with black-eyed peas to double their chances of a good year.

Eat pomegranate

Not only does the red color of pomegranates symbolize life and fertility, but the bright red round seeds are also a symbol of prosperity in many cultures, including in Türkiye and Brazil.
