I learned that this was a thing and when my grandmother saw me do it she lost it. "This house is not a garbage dump!" or something to that affect.Another thing I still do to day is if I knock over the salt shaker and salt spills out, I throw salt over my left shoulder.
If I did not do this ritual, my mom would go “ ballistic “ saying evil spirits would enter the house.
I mean, she was the oldest one in the family and surely had heard of it, but among other superstitions that she definitely believed, this was apparently not one of them.
