Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year is a mere good excuse to gluttony which otherwise would be criticised on any other normal day, during which any self-respecting host would play the part of the eager salesman, claiming that THEIR new year goodies were better than anybody else's and confirming the exquisiteness of its taste, even though the container containing the goodies may still be tightly bound in scotch tape. Price and other factors come into play in this game of advertising, from the "eat-it-and-you-will-get-a-lover" to the more direct "eat! eat!" to the "I bought this for (some extravagant amt) so you must eat".

Pot bellies rejoice. Yay.
