Question about Spain
I'm going to try to do the 12 grapes tradition for new year's. I did it last year and I seem to have forgotten the timing of it. The grapes must be consumed during the last 12 seconds before midnight, right? 😂

Technically yes, but I've heard that it has been changed. Now the seconds are not really seconds, they are a little bit more (para no morir en el intento xd)
Though as I said, that's just what I've heard, I don't know for sure.
Anyway, don't you have any way you could watch any Spanish channel? 🤔

Oops, I hadn't thought about the 7 hours of difference 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, it finishes at 00:00
But I have just gone to youtube, to this video: https://youtu.be/8Xe8o9V8ua0 to check it, and the guy says that it's one campanada per 3 seconds. Now I am confused 😟

@MegSlatt yeah, let's better wait for other answers. Because I had always thought it was 1 grape per second. My whole life has been a lie xdd

Don't do it, this tradition is not even a 150 years old, and it is only promoted from the grape industry, for obvious reasons... This year a 3 years old kid died for this stupid tradition.
