Pasta: steamed buns, mutton chop. However, eating mutton and drinking mutton soup in a big bowl in dog days and developing this custom into a grand festival with the participation of the whole people can only be realized in Xuzhou, which is inseparable from Xuzhou's regional culture. No matter from the geographical location or the climate environment, Xuzhou embodies the distinctive characteristics of the border zone between the north and the south, and its customs, traditions and cultural atmosphere are also characterized by being influenced by the same and eclectic factors in the north and south. Taking food culture as an example, the flavors of braised and sauced dishes in Qilu cuisine and the spicy and delicious flavor of Sichuan cuisine are all reflected in Xuzhou's diet. Generally speaking, Xuzhou cuisine has five flavors, mainly salty and fresh. Therefore, for Xuzhou people, sheep is an out-and-out delicacy, and the smell of mutton that people usually try their best to remove when cooking mutton is the embodiment of "freshness" in Xuzhou people's view. The local people boiled mutton and mutton soup in a large pot of clear water, and only added a few simple seasonings at the end, so that the peppers could be eaten. Although the meal cooked in this way is not exquisite, it is delicious, economical and enjoyable to eat. The simple folk customs and generous and informal personality enable local people to adapt to and like to eat fu sheep, and the custom of eating meat and soup in a big bowl in hot summer has been preserved.

It is also worth noting the local historical and cultural traditions in Xuzhou. Thousands of years ago, Peng Zu, who paid attention to diet and health, praised mutton; Later, Liu Bangxi, Emperor Gaozu of Pei County, ate mutton. According to Records of the Historian, Liu Bang killed sheep and set up wine banquets when he was young. In addition, Xuzhou is one of the areas with the largest number of stone reliefs unearthed in the Han Dynasty. A picture of a chef cooking food with mutton was painted on a piece of "Kitchen Map" unearthed in Hanwang Town, Tongshan County. On the one hand, the Fuyang Festival in Xuzhou is a logical inheritance of the local ancestors' dietary tradition, on the other hand, it also expresses a kind of nostalgia for the ancestors and yearning for the ancient rhyme of the Han Dynasty, which is a kind of historical precipitation and a bearing on national feelings.
