The Birth of Moon Cakes
- The Middle-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival in China.
- People do like to eat moon cakes during the day.
- It is well known that moon cakes symbolize the gathering of friends and families, and are an indispensable part of the offerings made to the Earth God.
- However, few people really knows the birth of moon cakes.
- Today, I'd like to share some information with you.
- According to a popular belief, the custom of eating moon cakes began in the late Yuan Dynasty.
- At that time, people hated the rule of the Mongolians.
- An insurrectionary army led by Zhu Yuanzhang planned to overthrow the rule of Yuan Dynasty.
- Zhu needed to find a way of uniting the people to revolt in secret.
- Zhu's advisor came up with a brilliant idea-creating moon cakes to deliver secret messages.
- In this way, the insurrectionary army successfully started a uprising to drive the ruler away.
- It happened at the time of full moon, which may explain why people eat moon cakes on this day.
- From then on, moon cakes have become an important part of the Middle-Autumn Festival.
- Traditional moon cakes are made with melted lard.
- But vegetable oils are more often used today, which are better for our health.
- Those moon cakes are usually put in four boxes to indicate moon's changing course.
