hungry wolf.
Spain
Many Spaniards will eat 12 fresh grapes at midnight-one with each strike of the clock.
Each grape represents a wish for happiness and good luck for every month in the coming year.
This "12 grapes in 12 seconds"custom came from a grape farmer in the Alicante region who
wanted to promote his produce about a century ago.The tradition has spread to other
countries too,with a few adjustments.In Portugal,they eat 12 dried grapes.In Peru,they
eat a thirteenth grape.
Denmark
In Denmark,they eat kransekage,a big horn-shaped cake,on New Year's Eve.When
they're finished with the cake,it's Danish custom to throw the used plates against the front
doors of their friends and neighbors.It's actually a sign of friendship.
Italy

because they think pigs are fat and keep moving forward,while other animals,such as
chickens or cows,move backward or stand still.
But whatever you eat into the New Year in Italy-pork,fish or chickenmake sure you stay at
home.Italians throw old possessions out of the window after midnight as an out-with-the-old,
