ummm… have not read the whole list so I might not be commenting on a fully informed basis about the whole rice bit: For starters, I am South Indian (the region from where the place “Bangalored” originated. Rice is a staple part of a South Indian’s and is considered a blessing as it means that you shall be prosperous enough to always have a full stomach, i.e., not go hungry. It is extensively used at Indian weddings and from what I have seen, not more than a kilogram is used (for the entire wedding guest list – does get quite crowded). Its basically just an expression of goodwill and, if you are like me, to pelt the groom’s face and make him realise that that’s the most minimum amount of pain he is ever going to feel again

“This is a very ancient superstition which seems to originate in the 1580s.” 440 years is not ancient.

Here’s one, though not food related: find a penny, pick it up and all the day you’ll have good luck-UNLESS its back is face-up. If you pick up a newfound penny on tails, bad luck will befall you.
