#SuperstitionSat Highlights: Fruits

/ Superstition Sam

Hello, and welcome back to another round of our Session’s Highlights. Yesterday (02/07), we shared your fresh superstitions about Fruits.

I didn’t get my five-a-day yesterday, so I can’t quite manage our usual post format, where we look at each superstition in detail. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy this selection!
