Halloween in Catalunya
In Catalunya all Saints Day (Tot Sants) is a holiday. Traditionally people eat chestnuts and sweet potatoes from street side stalls. This is supposed to give you wisdom. OK cosa numero uno: these taste bad. Cosa numero dos: the folks who sell these things jack up thier prices for this day and this day only. Considering these two facts and that everybody continues to do this ritual I guess the truth is that they don’t work.
