Green Vegetables
Greens symbolize wealth. On the special day for a prosperous New Year, various cultures around the world consume greens.

Grapes

Fish
In Asia, fish is thought to be a sign of wealth. Some Eastern European cultures believe that the glossy scales on the surface represent shining money, and keeping them attracts more money toward you.
Fish is also a healthier protein source than meat, which makes it a good luck charm. So, even if you can’t fill your wallet with a lot of money, the happy food may bring significant health benefits.
Cakes
A cake, on the other hand, may not be the ideal food for health nuts, but it has long been a part of every celebration. Keeping a cake at home on New Year’s Eve is supposed to bring you good fortune and wealth.
Dairy Products
In many cultures, it is widely accepted that dairy products bring good fortune and wealth in the New Year. You may enjoy the new year with a glass of plain milk or a bar of your preferred chocolate, for example. It’s entirely up to you!
