Dislike black eyed peas greatly but this looks so delicious, I just might give it a try

[@premgangaram8811]

Delicious I must say. Would be a whole lot better if I could have understood what was being said. Btw, English is my mother tongue.

[@vneomie]

I was reading it’s bad luck to eat chicken for the New Year’s Eve. Pork or fish is good luck.

[@TasteofTrini]

Good info! Thank you. I guess that's why it didn't work 😅😅😅😅 Gonna use pork then
