joe 你的中文越来越棒了。 很高兴看到你体验尝试中国传统节日中秋节必吃的月饼 在这祝愿你中秋节快乐 身体健康

Hi Joe, happy mid-autumn Festival! Thank you for sharing and for your interest in Chinese culture! So nice to follow up with you on KZfaq and know you. Thank you!

The piggy one is just a snack, not exclusively for any festival. The reason why they put it there is probably because of its red bean paste inside. The way to make it is very similar to making a mooncake, just different paste and different mold. The key to a traditional (Cantonese) mooncake is exactly the mixture of the sweetness from the lotus seed paste and the saltiness from the salted egg yolk, just like salted camarel ice cream! The paste is indeed quite nutty, a little bit like mochi I guess. If you don't like this mixture, you can just have the lotus seed paste first and then have the salted egg yolk later. Don't bite the salted egg yolk right away, let it stay in your mouth for a while and taste its saltiness, it is pretty interesting and delicious to me. The reason why I point out that the mooncake is traditionally Cantonese is that people in other parts of China have different types of mooncakes. For instance, Shanghainese mooncake is full of grind pork, for details, check out 'Shanghai Savory Mooncakes'. Anyways, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

Hi Joe, your first conversation with chinese is perfect! And so glad to see that you tried those mooncakes! I like mooncakes with meat. My German husband only liked 五仁月饼(with five nuts...)。Many people around me could not bear 五仁月饼 at all.They think it tastes disgusting😂. However,for me,the mid-autumn fest is all about family. The most mportant point,we are together,and we are healthy. No matter there're Mooncakes Or not. I wish you a happy Moonfest with family!

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! 人在远离家乡的地方，每一口月饼和中秋的月亮都是思念的味道。

九爷中秋节快乐🥮，记得吃月饼一定要一边欣赏月亮一边吃☺️

U missing out the 冰皮(snowskin)moon cake which you can get from the fridge in any chinese market. Those would probably be more of your appetites.

月饼要配茶喝，这样解腻也不干，是一种很好的下午茶配品。

中秋快乐！吃得开心！

Enjoy it slowly with chinese tea.

Great job, ur Genius🎉🎉

这包装的一看就很甜很甜的那种月饼

Hi Joe. The Mid-Autumn Festival or Mooncake Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the Chinese lunar calendar, so the actual date varies every year. There are legends and myths behind the festival but now it's all about family reunions. Families will gather to eat mooncakes, drink Chinese tea and enjoy the full moon. Of course these traditions will vary in every Chinese region. Eg. In Taiwan, the mooncakes are different and they normally have BBQ gatherings. In China, even though they have baked mooncakes but they don't taste as good as where I am from. I come from Singapore and I dare say our mooncakes are one of the best because it's quite a big deal here. I always prefer the traditional baked lotus paste with egg yolks. It's the lotus paste that tells whether a mooncake is good or not. As the lotus paste tends to be sweet, the egg yolks help to balance the sweetness... and you drink Chinese tea to wash away the oily aftertaste. Also during this festival, kids will carry lanterns and they have become part of the decorations in shopping malls and places of interest. Do come to Singapore... you will find different cultures and races coexisting here. 😊

LOL 😂 I like the confidence! OI!! Fella!! Mooncake!! WHERE!!? Have you heard of these mooncake things 😂 😂

From what I know, the mixed nuts mooncake suits British appetize better. I personally like the mixed nuts one with some tea. But they are very filling, I only eat them when I don't feel like having a dinner😂

I’ve never liked moon cakes as a Chinese lol. But I like those 冰皮月餅

joe 真的很棒👍

还有一种冰皮月饼，可能比较适合你的口味，因为馅料是以奶油奶酪为主，加一些水果干做辅助的，吃起来酸酸甜甜，没有很腻的感觉

甜月餅內的鹹蛋黃切開有流油 並且是橘紅色的 才是最好的月餅 另一種是鹹的 叫五仁月餅 但是用料不同 味道也不一樣 如果你不想吃傳統口味的 那麼冰皮月餅就是另一種選擇

Next time try the icy mooncake, it tastes like ice cream which better than the traditional one I think

I don't really like the traditional mooncake, but absolutely love 奶黄酥皮月饼

在英华人，应当推荐 九 品尝最传统的月饼：五仁、青红丝，哈哈哈~ 现在的月饼都是改良的

I also like the one you like. I hope someday you can visit Taiwan💕

fantastic!

居然没有五仁月饼，再配点青红丝是我小时候的噩梦。。。让我选就是豆沙。

Joe the Chinese in Birmingham might be speaking Cantonese lol 😂 same as in London 😂 I’m pulling your leg they still should be able to understand lol

People speaking Chinese are not monsters, why that makes you nerves. Happy Holiday!

Your chinese is pretty good! Nice!

Ich mag solche mit Eigeschmack. . .

You did well👍

我也不太爱吃月饼，但是中秋节回吃一口。

The green one isn't traditional ones unfortunately LOL, mooncakes are made with salted duck egg, the duck eggs represents message for the revolution against Ming dynasty Mooncakes were distributed on the Fifteenth day of 8th month in the Chinese calendar. There was a message inside to kill the rulers. Now its replaced with a Salted duck egg yolk.

Your favorite one is kind of like some high-end products in recent years. It tastes really good expect for that it is expensive. Just want to let you know that there could be hundreds of flavors of moon cakes. You can pick those you like but try to avoid some dark flavors like the Mocha one.

中秋快樂 DUDE

Have it with tea or coffee…. They’re lovely… granted I’ve only tried the lotus seed paste ones as they’re more common? I think? The stodgyness doesn’t it remind you of fudge? Or a thick sweet thing? Try it with tea or coffee… that’s how I like it! I mean milk tea…. Bloody hell mooncakes are expensive! In the uk

中秋快乐哟😂

Nuts and ham mooncake..❤️❤️❤️❤️

发音很准确 加油 joe

你需要泡茶解腻🤣

There are different moon cakes for the same Mid Autumn Festival all over China. They are sweet, salty, nutty, pork, and fresh flowers. They have all kinds of tastes, because China is too big. The Mid Autumn Festival is a festival representing family reunion. The whole family drinks tea and eats moon cakes in the evening to enjoy the moon.

Can you try to eat Preserved egg next video?

I think you’ll enjoy the pastry ones more.

In Unemployment on Sept 10, 2022 but now in Unemployment twice before Sept 29, 2023. Just I do not face Unemployment again for Mid Autumn Festival. I am Chinese but not born in China. Eaten Moon cakes when I went to Thailand in Sept 2017, May 2018, May 2023 as well because I love moon cakes.

Hello! I hope you can make a series of wonderful reactions about all Jay Chou's albums. thank you

Your Chinese have improved 👍👍👍

Well you ask him : Do you speak Chinese He answered: I can, no problem, what can I help you with?

推荐鲜肉月饼现烤的香酥，回味久还有酥皮的月饼，云南火腿月饼，我喜欢肉的，嘿嘿嘿嘿嘿

中秋节快乐！

祝願 中秋佳節愉快

You look so confused with the taste !lol.when I was little I hate them all too. Now I grow up I like eating half just for memories. It's about family,get together, remind me of time when I was little,when I was in China with my grandma.

九爷可爱

五仁才是王

有機會試試大班冰皮月餅

中秋節快樂

Better have some hot tea with moon cakes. How brave you have tasted all of them without a cup of oolong or green tea.😂❤

祝您中秋佳节，阖家团圆，平安幸福

👍

nice

云腿云腿😆

you have to try date mooncake 枣泥馅的 yyds

👍💯💯💯

我最喜欢红豆的 其次是枣泥的 然后现在更喜欢南方的鲜肉月饼XD

自学的中文，语言天赋厉害啊 Joe！

happy Mid-Autumn Festival

Many young Chinese don't like traditional mooncake. In my city, SuZhou style meat mooncake and icecream mooncake are more popular.

你这中文很好了！

cool, not bad at least I understand what you are saying when you asking for the mooncake. 😉

一个就饱了😅

Joe， wutiaoren please!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting 🤔🤔🤔

傳統月餅已經很少人在吃了，試試，蛋黃酥

歐美系統的好像不習慣豆類製品是甜的哈哈

Mooncakes only ? How about colouful lanterns ? I prefered less sugar mooncakes. Like your videos always..😘😘😘👍👍👍👍👍

Dont eat too much at one time, LOL, its too sweet

Wondering if joe knows of stu from China traveller channel? Or stupid in China? Can’t remember if he’s from Birmingham? I think maybe Yorkshire? Can’t remember

Hi mate I can tell you were in Birmingham xD

9grandpa Happy holidays

现在的月饼也是越来越放飞自我了，冰淇淋月饼、小笼包月饼，但是味道还行

😂😂😂

Do you like durian? If yes, highly recommend durian icy mooncake

Joe, please ask Sander to upload new videos, hahaha

mooncake do no eat much,hahahaha,no body will eat so much ,maybe take small one is good

不是所有的月餅都好吃，但是我最喜歡的卻是很多歐美不喜歡的蛋黃月餅

The purple one looks good. Never a fan of the salted duck egg stuff... Cheers.

You really don't. The large ones are usually at least 800 calories each, that's like 1.5 big mac...

Hi Joe，你买的这些月饼都是很常规经典的月饼，你不喜欢是很正常的。在中国的年轻人也不太喜欢这种很传统的味道，很多新颖的味道以及口感在中国被创造出来，欢迎你来尝试

h好可爱啊

要配茶啦moon cake should eat with Chinese Tea, or it will go too sticky and too sweet

The yolk represnts the moon actually - so the name "mooncake" XD

没有吃到真正的月饼啊。五仁月饼才是最初的样子，现在的月饼都花里胡哨的

热一下？ 别啊 。不能热

月饼更多的是文化，不能算是美食

pig means wealth in china.

joe 希望早日能到中国来旅游

eat it with tea will be better

想看看你没有胡子的样子

Too traditional and sweet,better have cup of unsweetened tea with it.

没有传统五仁月饼！哈哈

The pig shape, because this year is pig's year of the lunar calendar.

我也不喜歡吃月餅,特別是傳統那種,I I like lava custard mooncake
