Hmm if the clouds would move, I might be able to get a nice pic of the moon from my new place. I saw STARS for the first time in 3 years when I moved here :fullofwin:

As for mooncakes, fuck that shit :fuckthatshit:

I don't like normal moincakes, but the egg custard ones are quite good. Always get a box or two from peninsula, but I think they taste just the same as others

Are there cheap moon cakes tomorrow then?
If so, who's got good mooncakes?

I'm curious about Green Tea and some Savory ones.

Moon cakes are a money grab. Then they released those Un-baked Cold Moon-cakes that are triple the price. NOW those are money grabs to the max!

side note school in asia (cant remember if its taiwan or china) distributed mooncakes to their students and most of them got sick turns out they were a year old!

a couple years back a Asian man dropped off moon cakes at more work. I was like hey these look good and had a bite. Never will I ever try one again they are so nasty. Beyond a way to make a quick dollar due to tradition.

If I ever get handed some mooncake I just eat the yolk. The crust isn't bad either, TBH. It's the bean paste that is nasty.

I don't know what's wrong with you guys.
I like lotus seed paste.

I have a feeling you're taking one massive bite and then spit it out cause it's like lotus paste overload.

Mooncake NEEDS to be paired with tea in order to not be nasty. The max I can eat in one sitting is still a quarter slice though. Had some of those pansy cold dessert mooncakes too, they now have tons of new flavors like coffee and weird fruit combinations which are really bland

SkinnyPupp
09-12-2011, 09:13 PM
The frozen ones are even worse, IMO. Instead of lotus seed, which actually isn't too bad, they use mung bean paste. Combined with horrible artificial flavours (the cheesecake ones taste like cheez whiz), and no yolks, they are far worse than the traditional ones.

Most if not all of the chinese bakeries and stores like T&T will have discounts starting tomorrow since today is the moon festival. The % off will vary.

I was just surprised that pricesmart started its sale today.

Never had a Mooncake before...a cake that contains beans and a whole egg yolk? Doesn't sound very appetizing...?

Oh, well, here's my Moon shot:

What time did you take those moon shots? We noticed the moon 'setting' last week around 10:45pm before rising up in the sky again. Is it doing the same thing this week?

Senna4ever
09-12-2011, 11:46 PM
The Moon rises and sets at different times everyday. If you have an iPhone there are apps like LightTrac & Sun Seeker that tells you when the Sun and Moon rise and set and will also tell you sightlines, so you can see where in the sky they will be at any given time.

back in the day (1960's) mooncakes were very valuable, MOST people would eat was like half of one at a time, they weren't made to be gorged upon

i heard people even saved throughout the year so they could buy mooncakes at this time of year and go around sharing with neighbours and friends

eh oO

always heard stories about family buying/making mooncakes the size of tabletops and everyone on the block would come and party

but they didnt look like the ones now (different part of china i guess)
