re: Pork, Black Eyed Peas, Cabbage, and Cornbread… Is that the general consensus for NYD?

I always heard growing up that black-eyed peas were for health and cabbage was for wealth. Usually have pork as well but fried catfish yesterday instead.

Stewed tomatoes also. I had black eyed peas, stewed tomatoes and pork chops.

Never heard the pork thing, heard the cornbread thing a few years ago. Seems repetitive
I feel like the cornbread part is just something made up to go with cornbread because you would always serve cornbread with black eyed peas and cabbage/greens.
I've been to a lot of New Year's parties where they had peas cooking all evening and cook up some bacon/cabbage. Right after midnight they serve peas, cabbage, and cornbread, making sure their guests are lucky and wealthy all year.
