Mid-Autumn Delicious - Moon Cakes


This entry was posted on Tuesday, November 13th, 2007.

I blogged an entrie named 'Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival ', but I
forgot to introduce the most delicious in Mid-Autumn Festival, that's
an ancient food in China, it appeared from Yuan Dynasty, which started
from 1279, about more than 700 years from now.

The delicious named Moon Cake, you can get more info about it from
wikipedia (click here to read mooncake in Wiki ). And it can be searched
in Flickr, there also has many photos about the Chinese cakes (click
here to see photos in Flickr
).

Serval years ago, pastries factory yield more and more mooncakes and
the price of mooncakes became higher and higher, then the problem was
appeared, on the one hand, ordinary people won't blow his money on the
dear cakes, the other hand, yield is too more than the demands of the
market, result, after Mid-Autumn Festival, excess cakes became
garbages, it turn into food for livestock (for pigs).

Then,
baddy appeared, they bought overdue cakes in a low price, so, moon cake
of the next year is a remake of overdue cakes one year's ago, how
dreadful it is! But that's really.

After the scandal was brought
to light, cakes' production and selling was under the careful
supervision of Ministry of Public Health, now, we can eatting moon
cakes relax.
