How come reading tea leaves is seen as this sophisticated, witchy thing but if I slam dunk an open can of Chef Boyardee ravioli onto the pavement in the gas station parking lot to see what kind of soda the old ones think I should buy, foodstuff divination suddenly isn't cool anymore? :::

tea is cheap and you read the leftover leaves from drinking a cup. that is some wasteful and expensive divination.

Plus, with an additional time preparation and consumption of tea\coffee implies, one can charm a person to better believe whatever comes in that forecast. It's an important lag psychology-wise, that also kinda involves people themselves in the said process, so they have harder times doubting it all.

ceremony is key.

I’d be really unhappy if I stepped in a pile of spaghetti-O’s while walking into a gas station.

It is ill advised because Mr. Boyardee is a scoundrel and his spirit will influence predictions so that they ultimately lead to hijinks, his council should only be trusted in matters of pasta.

Some might say it's too disruptive, but that's just tone policing.

LOL. I mean, reading runes as a form of divination is basically on this level. The idea is that you fill a bag with runes, then dump it out on a surface and make your reading based on how they fall.
Personally I prefer to use spaghettios divination in my practice.
