  • In Poland we have this anecdote explaining traditions.

    Whenever I make boiled pork knuckle I cut it in half, because that’s how my Mom taught me. I didn’t know the reason, so I asked her about it: “Oh, I do it because that’s what your Granny did. It’s tradition.”. I went to Granny and asked the same: “Your Great grandmother did so, and so I do too. It’s tradition”.

    I went to GG, and her answer was “I had a small pot”. That’s what tradition is.
