This is also a favorite of the Hut people, one of whom, by the name of Zhang, is shown in the photo, whose family engaged in the trade for generations. Another kind of snack called Aiwowo was often sold on the same stand of the glutinous-rice cake. It is a steamed glutinous rice Ball with sweetened bean past or sesame filling, mostly sold in spring and summer.
