5. Miniature Oranges
6. Mangoes
7. Papaya

Interesting notion…I used to know many New Year’s customs but forgot so much during my illness this past year. Saving this to my memory files.

I was about to say I love all of those (I hate veggies but love fruit) but then I got to #13 and I realized I have no idea what a Chico is!
