Kagay-anons’ excitement to ring in the new year is at a fever pitch! What with 2 years of no face-to-face partying, mora’g naka-buhi ra gyud tas toril.
First time after 2 years, laliman ka. Pandamay gyud nis Covid!
So now, the pre-pandemic holiday euphoria seems to have come back. Ang Divisoria– traffic. Ang malls–crowded.
And, like before (even when we were all locked up inside our houses), one of the most sought-after essentials that people frantically want to get hold of are round fruits—for these are considered to be bringers of prosperity for the upcoming year.
Why round? Well, that’s the shape of gold and silver coins of the olden days, the tokens of wealth. And, these kinds of fruits are supposed to represent them.
In the Philippines, the custom calls for consuming 13 of those types of fruits on New Year’s Day. And, why 13? Well, according to folklore, it’s a lucky number.
So now, let us present to you 13 round fruits of our choice that could help you attract prosperity into the year 2022:
