New Year's Lucky Fruits

Fruit sellers was almost everywhere before New Year Eve. Why? One of the traditions followed by people from the Philippines during New Year is preparing 13 kinds of fruits or more. These fruits should be round and sweet. It's 13 because as Chinese believes is a lucky number and having round fruits signifies coins so having a lot will bring luck and prosperity this coming 2009. So this is not only for Filipino tradition and beliefs but really from Chinese. For sure, the fruit sellers are already experiencing the luck and prosperity way ahead of everyone else. My mother believes this because every new year she really bought any round fruits, is sometimes more than 13 kinds.
