Feng shui expert shares a few lucky dishes to ring in 2021

Did you know that some of the food we eat everyday are said to be associated with certain qualities like wealth, abundance, success, good luck and so on?

In an interview with "Unang Hirit," Feng Shui expert Master Ang said there is no such thing as "unlucky" food.

"Walang pagkaing malas. Lahat ng pagkain masuwerte. Kaya lang, meron lang talaga tayong hinahanda kapag sinasalubong natin talaga ang Bagong Taon," he said.

Ham, for example, tastes sweet and is usually round, both of which can signify good fortune.

"Ang ham kasi di ba matamis? Tapos lahat naman tayo kumakain ng pork, kasi yan ang isa sa mga pinakakain natin," said Master Ang.

"So kapag hinandaan natin yung ham na matamis and alam naman natin ang ham kadalasan bilog, kaya masuwerteng-masuwerte talaga," he said.

According to the feng shui expert, steamed fish can also be another lucky food in 2021.

"Maganda kasi sa taong ito 'yung fish, kailangan na kailangan natin yan sa hapag kainan," Master Ang explained.

"Usually, ang dapat nating ginagawa talaga dapat diyan i-steam natin. Kung hindi naman, pwede namang i-fry, pero 'yung usually talagang ginagamit natin talaga' yung steamed," he added.

Even chicken is said to have positive qualities.

"Ang manok kasi, masikap, maagap at alerto sa buhay, so hindi naman talaga totoo na kapag kumain ka ng manok, mamalasin ka," Master Ang said.

Of course, Master Ang didn't forget to remind everyone of the significance of having round fruits on the table.

"Kahit hindi naman 12 pieces," he said. "Puwede rin naman kahit walo, kahit anim puwede naman. Kaya lang tayong mga pilipino gusto natin dose because its a sign of completeness para kumpleto kaya ang gusto nila ng 12 na prutas," he added.
