My boyfriend told me that on New Years Day we have to boil potatoes and cabbage and sausage together that it was supposed to bring good luck. Can someone tell me if this is a true tradition and if it is where did it come from and how was it started.

My family is irish and that is a tradition in our family. How it started I dont know. I was just told it was an irish tradition. Another new years good luck dish is blackeyed peas. I think that one is a mexican tradition.

My husband insist we eat sour kraut and smoked sausage on new year's eve. We have mashed potato's with it. His family has always done it. They say for good luck for the new year. Doesn't work though! LOL. I have no idea where it came from.

Dunno. But if you added corned beef, it'd be St. Patrick's Day dinner.
