In Brazil we have many superstitions, but one I remember now is that you can't eat mango and dairy together.
There's another superstition which I think is more exclusive to my region, the Northeast region. If you hear someone calling your name but you find out no one actually called your name, it's because someone in the world of the dead is calling you. So you should say "Só vou daqui a cem anos!" three times. It translates to "I'm only gonna go in a hundred years!".
Ahhhhh , so that's the reason for my numerous surprises of "S" in Paris/other cities during my last visit. It's just French folks wanting me to do well in life by ensuring more "Luck" comes my way.

Superstitions are so stupid. I do not participate.
Parisians – you can't make up superstitions that aide and abet you in not cleaning up dog shit on the street!
well thats because there is dogshit absolutely everywhere in france. So it's a dogshit country
i just stepped in dogg poo. right foo tho 🙁
to be fair it's really difficult to get the LAST last drop and remains out of a wine bottle
For a country without the death penalty france is sure worried about people who work as executioners.
Nah in Singapore(+I think the ASEAN countries), getting shat on by a bird is considered lucky.
Like bird poop on me n I’m lucky, damn thatz wild
I hate to cheers. So every time someone tries it I explain how and why this whole cheers thing started and they leave me alone😂
The cheers thing in Belgium is also 7 years of bad s*x
Fix that crooked picture behind you, please.
*Married or guillotined
so much dog poop on the streets that they made a superstition about it?
😂😂
wow. superstition in France is culture. superstition in the US is stupidity, seems fair.
In Ireland if a bird shits on your head you'll find money on the group or visa versa
Germans say “bird poop brings luck”. Incidentally, I had a bird poop on my head today 💩. Still waiting for luck.
I’m french and I’ve never heard some of these in my life lmao
In San Francisco it’s when you step in human poop

Also, don’t ever set your glass down after a cheers without taking a sip first.
As a french I only only know the last superstition, and I learned it from a video about french superstition
Didn't they still cut people with heinous crimes in the guillotine until the 1970's?
Pied droit, pied gauche, peu importe. There’s so much dog shit on the sidewalk in France, you’ll put both feet in it.
"Bedroom"? Oh, you mean a bedwoom :3

Frence people need to learn manners
the "congratulations!" had me cackling XD
Maybe that’s why no one in Paris ever seems to clean up after their dogs poop…
So that's why Grandma Anna made the sign of the cross on the bottom of all our bread!
Given that I refuse to marry….
I was about to say that’s weird but then I remembered I’m British 😂
Noticing a theme with these superstitions
"If you cheers without eye contact, that means bad luck in thr bedroom"
Me, an asexual: aggressively avoids eye contact while cheers-ing every person at the table
Why do I believe there’s two people😂
The bread thing sounds like something Cat, I Farted would come up with when prompted to make a French superstition.
