Asia's Fruitcake

China's answer to the West's fruitcake is the mooncake and tomorrow is the mooncake festival. Everyone gives boxes of mooncakes to friends and family and companies give them to their customers and clients. Many people don't care for the biscuit-shaped confections filled with various gummy flavors. There's a lot of re-gifting going on as people try to both meet obligations and get rid of the awful things. I'm waiting for someone to come up with a peanut butter and chocolate mooncake. I might be able to stomach that.

I'll see what I can do. They are a big favorite around our house. Mainly the ones with egg yolks in the middle.Not me though.
