What festivals does the Youth League eat?

This kind of food is eaten in Tomb-Sweeping Day and Cold Food Festival.

1, Tomb-Sweeping Day: Tomb-Sweeping Day is an important traditional festival to worship ancestors and sweep graves in China, which usually falls around April 4th every year in the Gregorian calendar. In addition to remembering ancestors, Tomb-Sweeping Day is also a time when spring returns to the earth and everything recovers. People can feel the breath of spring by eating green balls.

2. Cold Food Festival: Originated in the Spring and Autumn Period, it was originally set up to commemorate Jietui, and it has the custom of forbidding fire and eating cold food. With the development of history, some customs of the Cold Food Festival gradually merged into Tomb-Sweeping Day, especially in the south of the Yangtze River. During the period from Cold Food Festival to Tomb-Sweeping Day, people will cook and enjoy the reunion dinner.
