I was surprised to learn of the many superstitions
involving bread. Here are some of them:
While bread is baking the baker should not sing
A loaf must always be upright when sitting on the table
– otherwise some bad luck is around the corner.
If a buttered slice falls onto the floor, butter side
up, you'll be getting a visitor soon.
A pair of superstitions about taking the last slice –
if you are a single woman you'll stay single – but a single man will marry
someone rich – how unfair is that!
Eating lots of bread will put hair onto a young boy's
chest.
What other superstitions of the bready kind do you know
of?
