In a blink of an eye, it's already the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. According to the old theory, "Stewed pork on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month" is believed to be a festival for all children, and finally they can eat "Year Meat". So, let's talk about the folk custom of stewing pork on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month.

In the past, people's lives were poor, and there were many people in their families. They often ate meals without meals, and the conditions were slightly better, but they could only eat steamed corn and wild vegetables. The Chinese New Year is finally coming, and the laborers at home have started to kill pigs. People who don't raise pigs go to the market to cut a piece of meat and go home. Therefore, the stew on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month is also called "the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, killing pigs and cutting meat for the coming year".
