Actually, blackeyed peas (usually made up in some form of Hoppin' John) is the traditional (Southern U.S. anyway) "good luck" bringin' New Years Dish. Menudo is better known as a hangover remedy...which may be good luck to some, after a night of New Years celebration I wouldn't try to tell that to some friends of mine who happen to be Mexican and who happen to eats loads of this on New Year's Day (not just the one's suffering from a hangover either.....B-) -- Rich McCormack (Poway, CA) macknet@cts.com Who is Rich McCormack?
