[quote=SEAHOME,270063]It is said that dumplings were first known in China some 1,600 years ago. Its Chinese pronunciation Jiaozi means midnight or the end and the beginning of time, symbolizing "bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new". Also, the shape of the dumplings looks like gold ingot from ancient China. So people eat them and wish for money and treasure. Winston [/quote]
