Don’t eat.
According to the query on Jiuzhou Zui Catering Network, we learned that Yuanxiao is not eaten on New Year’s Day, but glutinous rice balls are eaten. Yuanxiao and glutinous rice balls are not the same. Yuanxiao is eaten during the Lantern Festival. Eating glutinous rice balls represents harmony in the family and everything goes well. It means reunion. So on New Year’s Day, we eat glutinous rice balls instead of Yuanxiao.
