Meat floss is actually a powder made by removing water from meat, usually made from beef, lamb, lean pork, fish and chicken after removing water, so the nutrients are the same as meat, and rich in protein.

From the early days of the Mongol Empire, Genghis Khan's dry rations when he rode into battle in Eurasia were meat loaf and powdered milk. Marco Polo's account of his travels, the Mongol cavalry had carried a meat floss food. Meat floss was easy to make and did not require "Xiurun processing", which was perfected in the early Mongolian period. The predecessor of the Qing dynasty, Dajin did not have a meat floss legend, and the latter Jin Qing dynasty was influenced by the Mongolian diet, and then adopted for their own use.
