Therefore, dogs are faithful representatives, called a member of our family, and in the month of Wax people believe that eating dogs is unlucky, and choose not to eat dog meat to show respect and gratitude to them.
Third: Don't eat rabbit meat.
In rural areas, many people will raise some rabbits and cook them for children, because the meat of rabbits is warm and delicate, which is very suitable for children. However, during the wax moon, it is recommended not to eat rabbit meat.
The rabbit is a symbol of good luck and longevity in traditional culture, and eating rabbit meat during the lunar month will ruin good luck and longevity in the New Year. And in winter, the taste of rabbit meat at this time will be relatively poor, and it is not conducive to health. It is recommended not to eat rabbit meat during the wax moon.
Fourth: Don't eat cold food.
In winter, the weather is cold, and many people like to eat hot pot, which is very comfortable after the hot pot is in the stomach. But in pursuit of excitement, many people will eat ice cream in winter. The icy ice cream also brings us extraordinary stimulation.
Fifth: Don't eat spicy food.
When the weather is cold, many people eat some spicy food to drive away the cold for the body. However, spicy ingredients are irritating, and if you eat them regularly, they can cause gastrointestinal problems. Eating spicy food in the cold wax moon will cause unnecessary trouble to the body and can also cause digestive problems. So, for the sake of your health, avoid eating less or no spicy ingredients.
