  maybe I am just getting old, but I haven't had any moon cakes for the last couple of years……….. I used to be able to eat a whole cake in one seating, but last time I tried it, I could barely get through 1/4, and I had to wash it down with a big cup of dark tea……….

    Just getting old, I was the same. These days even if I had some it would be the nostalgia aspect.

    i can still wolf down an entire mooncake. but needs to be cut into quarters or eighths. being a savage n eating it, makes it feel too overwhelming cause its a lot of lotus or a lot of egg. But the sugar does get to you.

  Pretty sure I'm allergic to something in these, it might be red bean paste. I can't force myself to eat them, I get an involuntary gag relfex and feel sick afterwards. I always feel like that guy who's culturally insensitive refusing this stuff

    Damn, sad to hear it. I don't think there are red beans in this one (though red bean filled moon cakes exist).

    Better not to gamble in case they use the same equipment for red bean and lotus fillings.

    Could be peanut oil, egg white or yolk, red bean or lotus seed.

      Definitely not peanut or egg, maybe lotus seed?

        I forgot that there is usually sunflower seeds (whole or coarsely chopped) with the lotus seed paste.

          @DarkOz: Def not sunflower seeds, have eaten this on their own quite a few times

    @Jackson Another allergen could be lye water (kansui) in mooncakes
