Hello All,
I just returned from the store where I bought black-eye peas, collard greens and hog jowl which is the traditional new years meal in my neck of the woods here in the Appalachia (supposed to bring good luck) , I was wondering if there were any similar traditions for new years food where you call home.

I wouldn't really say there is any set menu but in my household home-made Steak Pie with tatties is mandatory at New Year!
