Why do we eat crabs during the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Eating crabs during the Mid-Autumn Festival: a long-standing custom
Crabs have been a very delicious food since ancient times, and the custom of eating crabs during the Mid-Autumn Festival has a long history. In ancient times, crabs were one of the most important foods at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. They were a popular delicacy on the table, and were most exquisite in the palace. Li Yu, a playwright in the Qing Dynasty, once said: "The crab is fresh and plump, sweet and greasy, white like jade and yellow like gold. It has reached the pinnacle of color, fragrance and taste. Nothing can surpass it."
Eating crabs during the Mid-Autumn Festival: expressing gratitude
"Crab" and "thank you" have the same pronunciation. Eating crabs during the Mid-Autumn Festival and giving crabs to relatives and friends are all ways to express one's love. Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional Chinese festival and a festival full of affection and friendship. In the hearts of Chinese people, the Mid-Autumn Festival is composed of moon, night and home. Reunion is the theme of Mid-Autumn Festival, and it also happens to be a day for people to return home, visit relatives and friends, get together with good friends, and express their feelings. Sending crabs at this time is the most appropriate.
Eat crabs during the Mid-Autumn Festival: rich in nutrients
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a very good time to eat crabs because crabs are rich in nutrients, especially the protein content is several times higher than that of pork and fish. Crab meat is rich in protein and a variety of free amino acids, especially glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, arginine and proline, which help the absorption of nutrients.

Things to note when getting a haircut at a barber shop:

It’s best to wash your hair at home in advance.
Many people choose to wash their hair at the barber shop before getting a haircut. Don’t think I’m stupid. It is certainly convenient and comfortable to let the barber shop wash your hair directly, but you will understand if you know the shampoo they use. You can buy a big bucket of shampoo for just a few dollars. Would you dare to use such shampoo? Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t wash your hair in the barber shop often, but for the health of your hair, it is better to wash it at home and go to the barber shop when your hair is half dry.
Ask for prices in advance.
The prices in a barber shop are uncertain. See what services you need. Remember, you must ask the price before doing your hair, otherwise you will suffer a great loss. It's just an ordinary haircut. Different barbershops have different cutting methods and head shapes, and the prices are also different, so just ask clearly.
Avoid being misled by your barber.
When many people are getting their hair cut, the barber will introduce various other services based on your hair type, such as perming, dyeing, etc. They will make you excited as soon as they mention them, but you must be careful, because perming and dyeing are very damaging to your hair, and the pigments used in barber shops are very cheap. Using too much of them will do more harm than good to your body. The prices for perming and dyeing are set arbitrarily, and you will be ripped off without any negotiation.
