Eating at the Pei Wei last night, I noticed a woman throwing something over her shoulder. I assumed she had spilled the salt, but on closer inspection, I realized that there weren't any salt shakers on the tables. So I wondered: if people in Asian countries spill the soy sauce, do they throw it over their shoulders? And doesn't that get kind of messy?
On a related topic, in those tribes where they believe taking your picture steals your soul, does breaking a mirror bring seven years of good luck?
What other superstitions are either superannuated or in need of a makeover?
