The mooncake festival is so commercialized in recent years that the mooncake makers are selling them earlier and earlier. This year, I already saw mooncakse on sale in the 6th moon of the Chinese lunar calendar which I think is way too early and inappropriate! I am thinking that soon, we will be able to get hold of mooncakes the whole year through which means that there is no special significance of the mooncake festival any longer!
Even before we reach the 15th day of the eight moon of the Chinese lunar calendar, most of us would have already eaten way too many mooncakes that by the time it is moon cake festival, nobody would be in the mood to celebrate it. LOL
I think that mooncakes are too sweet and should only be taken a little as a significant gesture and not really gobbled up like our main meal or something like some people are doing! Horrible, man.
My household has only eaten one box. Well, with my parents, they are really afraid of the sugar! But my dad sure loves the assorted nuts mooncake. When I was a kid, I really felt geli eating that. It tastes funny. I still think it tastes funny but I am OK eating it now.
