Fu Yang Festival is a traditional Chinese food festival, which starts on the first day of the traditional lunar calendar and ends at the last day of the lunar calendar every year and lasts for one month. "Eating sheep in the dog days" has a long history in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, which can be traced back to the Yao and Shun period. Since ancient times, there has been a saying among the people in Xuzhou that "a bowl of soup for a sheep does not require a doctor to prescribe a prescription".

"The Biography of Han Yang Yun" records: "The Tian family worked hard, and when they were old, they fell into wax, and the sheep _ lamb, fighting for wine." Eating mutton on a dog's day is a great pioneering work of taking food as a treatment, which can heat the body, sweat and detoxify, and drive away the poison and moisture in winter and spring.
