The tradition of grapes in Barcelona for New Year's Eve




    How many lentil dishes did you eat during your life on the last night of the year?
    Well if on New Year's Eve you find yourself in Catalonia, know that the tradition brings good luck is completely different. Unlike lentils, which must be eaten before the stroke of midnight, here the important thing is not only what you will eat but also the timing!

    Well .. since at this point you will all be very curious to know what it is ... I'll be good and I'll tell you the secret! At the shock of the midnight on December 31rd, the clocks and bell towers of towns and cities make theirs ring bells for 12 times. And everyone has to eat a grape for each toll of the bell, following the rhythm.

    That's why I said that you have to be very careful about the timing ... It's not easy at all, being able to eat the beans one after the other without choking... .. but if you succeed, you will have a year of good luck .. and above all it means that you can breathe again !!!
