In the north, especially in the northeast, the number of new year's goods prepared is very unrestrained. Cabbage is a basic necessity. As the Spring Festival approaches, it is very common for sacks to carry cabbage home. In addition, meat stuffing is also a must. At home in the north, it is often seen that jiaozi is prepared with meat stuffing several days in advance. In addition, the most important thing in preparing new year's goods in the north is steamed bread. Especially in some rural areas, various fancy buns will appear one after another during the Chinese New Year.

But in the south, the common new year's goods are bacon and rice cakes. In winter, every household begins to dry bacon. Rice cakes are also essential. There are many kinds of rice cakes in the south of China, but they are all delicious.

Tangyuan is also an essential thing for southerners to celebrate the New Year. Tangyuan is also called "jiaozi" and "Tangyuan", which means "family reunion"; Rice cakes are homophonic with "high year after year", which symbolizes that life and career will be promoted step by step in the coming year. As for snacks eaten in the south, all kinds of cakes are essential. Almond cakes, cloud cakes, mung bean cakes, bearded cakes ... all kinds of snacks such as glutinous rice and cakes are very popular.
