southern people often eat tangyuan a kind of sweet dumpling made of glutinous rice flour having black gingili peanuts and other nuts in it sometimes often having meat in it.
南方人吃汤圆——一种用糯米包上黑芝麻、花生等果馅的甜团子,也有用肉做馅的。
just like china's other traditional holidays, the lantern festival also has its own special dish —「yuan xiao」, or sweet dumpling soup.
