Err, Sounds like, um, fun No. 3 here as well....won't stop me coming right over and burning your stall buying and eating many many moon cakes off you... (I meant buying them off you... not eating them off you...) Come to think of it, what exactly IS a 'moon cake'? Am I to understand it is made of actually pieces of the moon? because that's very unfriendly to the environment if its true...with that attitude you'll find yourself on an earth with no oxygen, foodstuff, water or celestial bodies in no time.

well a moon cake a a block of lotus paste with some duck egg yolks put in the middle and a soft pastry outside. Lotus paste : some sort of sweet bean. not a locus Duck egg yolk : put a duck egg in super saturated salty water for 57 days then retrieve egg yolk by carefully breaking the egg. tastes nice you should try it the festival is for people to gather round and pay shops insane prices for the cakes so that they can socialise . i never knew about the slash function

I think the colony that inhabits the cake just started industrial revolution when u ate it (I believe It`s warp drive by now...) ;D

So you're saying that I wasn't actually vomiting up a cake that disagreed with my bowels; rather a cake-evolved civilisation was leaving my innards at warp speed to expand their mighty empire?
We're all dooooomed!

They might be friendly. Nobody likes to be swallowed whole and eaten, right?
Oh, and I never tasted your Moon Cakes, Kev, but if they taste at least half as good as my mother's moon cakes (named after their shape, as they look like little crescent moons - they are full of vanilla with a hint of lemon and absolutely sugar free) I'll gladly try them.

I've changed my mind: Moon-cakes are good. Just so long as they're not egg-centred...

heh no-one likes the eggs . but they are needed to make the mmon cakes nicer or some crap like that... something about the oil from the yolks seeping into the locus paste and such making it more tasty...
