Mooncakes are also called moon cakes, small cakes, harvest cakes, reunion cakes, etc. They are the seasonal food of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Mooncakes were originally used as offerings to the moon god. Moon worship is a very old custom in our country. It is actually an activity of worship for the "Moon God" by the ancients. Today, eating mooncakes and appreciating the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival have become essential customs for celebrating the festival in all parts of China. Mooncakes symbolize reunion, and people regard them as festive food, using them to worship the moon and give them to relatives and friends.Why eat mooncakes?The custom of eating mooncakes has already existed in the Tang Dynasty. "Luo Zhong Jian Wen" said: Tang Xizong ate mooncakes on Mid-Autumn Festival and they tasted delicious. When he heard that the newly-appointed Jinshi were holding a banquet in Qujiang, he ordered the imperial kitchen to wrap mooncakes in red silk and give them as rewards. This is the first record of mooncakes. The word "bing" appeared as early as the Han Dynasty. Liu Xi's "Yi Ya Yu Zhong recorded: "Bing means to combine, which means to collect wheat flour and combine it." It seems that this is the predecessor of mooncake, it is called sweet biscuit or small biscuit. Su Dongpo of the Northern Song Dynasty had a poem about "small cakes": "The small cakes are like chewing the moon, with crispy and yummy fillings inside." Crisp refers to ghee, and yummy refers to yummy sugar. It can be seen that mooncakes in the Song Dynasty were even sweeter, crispier, more fragrant and delicious, and there were more varieties of mooncakes.As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing one can control is his or her "luck."
