Moreover so expensive, $11 for 6 pcs 😱
All these festivities and traditions become a milking festival for businesses liao. They know the boomer parents must do certain things certain way and the kids get guilt trip gaslighted to do it. So they purposely charge gao.

Especially all the lo hei nonsense, $100 for veggie, some even up to 888 or whatever for some veggie with canned abalone. But ppl will still pay because must do during cny

Best is use the money go overseas and fk sinkie businesses

I buy only Taiwanese ponkum. China's kum quality varies too much.

Hmm .. last year a relative bought 1 box of HMR oranges for my mum and say the taste is very unique becoz it has a jelly texture + sweet and juicy + seedless .....

After taste test .. our verdict is NO JELLY FEEL .... just very juicy and no seeds ... pretty sweet ..... so kenna con for paying $30++ for 1 box ......

If red beauty is not nice this year, I'll buy papa oranges. Nice looking and nice to eat.
