This Powerpoint looks at the traditional foods served on New Year's Day. The Kitchen god Zhang reports back on New Year's Eve to the Jade Emperor on whether the family have been kind to each other. Just to make sure they get a favourable report, the family smear sweet cakes on the lips of the ki More…tchen god. This tells the story behind the custom.
