New Year’s Day luck: Pork & sauerkraut tradition

Starting the year with pork and sauerkraut isn’t just a tasty Midwest habit—it’s a ritual loaded with meaning. Families across Ohio and beyond swear by this dish for good fortune and prosperity, thanks to deep German and Eastern European roots. Pork stands for moving forward (since pigs root ahead), while sauerkraut’s long strands symbolize money and abundance. Add some mashed potatoes or dumplings, and you’ve got a meal that’s all about comfort and hope for the year ahead. Anyone else keep this tradition alive? What’s your go-to New Year’s Day meal? #Food #NewYearsDay #Tradition

Hanukkah’s Real Lesson Isn’t What You Think

Hanukkah isn’t just about gifts or universal messages—its roots are all about fighting to keep your culture alive when everyone else wants you to blend in. The Maccabees stood their ground for what made them unique, and that’s a vibe we could all use right now. It’s a reminder that it’s okay to be proud of your traditions and stand up for what makes your community special. That’s the Hanukkah energy we need! #Culture #Hanukkah #Tradition
