I love pickled herring. Addictive.

As for collards...is that the same family as mustard greens? I eat alot of the fresh veggie stuff (cooked) from the Asian side, gai-lan, you choy, Shanghai bok choy, bok choy, etc. Some of the stuff is rich in all sorts of nutrients...that I never knew until a few years ago.

As for good luck food, we have seaweed soup, Chinese word is homonym on millionaire, hence eating it for prosperity. Yes, I do like seaweed...many types out there. It tastes like a fine linguine. That's all. If you like seafood, you will like sea vegetables, 'coz that's what it is.
