Why do we eat mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival?Originally, mooncakes were used as offerings to the moon god. Later, people gradually regarded the Mid-Autumn Festival moon-watching and mooncake tasting as a symbol of family reunion. The most traditional mooncakes are round, symbolizing reunion and beauty. It reflects people's good wishes for family reunion. Gradually, mooncakes became festival gifts and evolved into the annual custom we have today.According to historical records, as early as the Yin and Zhou dynasties, there was a kind of "Taishi Cake" with thin edges and thick center in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas to commemorate Taishi Wen Zhong. It is the "ancestor" of Chinese mooncakes. When Zhang Qian was on a diplomatic mission to the Western Regions in the Han Dynasty, he introduced sesame and walnut kernels, which added auxiliary materials to the making of moon cakes. At this time, round cakes with walnut kernels as fillings appeared, which were called "Hu Bing". Mooncakes have a long history in our country. In the Tang Dynasty, there were already bakers among the people, and bakery shops began to appear in the capital city Chang'an. It is said that one Mid-Autumn night, Emperor Taizong of Tang and Yang Guifei looked at the bright moon and were so excited that they blurted out the word "moon cake". From then on, the name "moon cake" gradually spread among the people. The royal family of the Northern Song Dynasty liked to eat a kind of "palace cake" during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was commonly known as "small cake" or "moon cake" among the people. It was not until the Ming Dynasty that eating mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival gradually became popular among the people. The skillful bakers at that time printed the myth of Chang'e flying to the moon as an artistic pattern on mooncakes, making mooncakes a must-have food for the Mid-Autumn Festival that is more popular among the people.
