Rice Dumpling Snatch Festival
The Rice Dumpling Snatch is the most exciting
festival for the Mulan ethnic minority. Three groups of three people
are organized and compete to snatch triangular rice dumplings out of
a jar using long chopsticks. The three people can only touch the
ground on three feet creating an hilarious scene of hopping hand in
hand and foot by foot in order to keep balance. If they lose their balance, the
snatched rice dumpling may drop to the ground. The group who collects the
most rice dumplings wins. Triangular rice dumplings are a kind of lunch
meal and are used as offerings during the festival. They believe that the
team who snatches the most rice dumplings recieves the most
blessings.
