Intestinal Vermicelli is a specialty of the city of Luoding, Guangdong Province.
The intestines were first made in present-day Luoding, Guangdong Province, when the monks Huijie and Huineng created a prototype of today's intestines, which are called Longjianchi or Huijiechi, when disaster struck the people. The name "rice noodle" was later given by Emperor Qianlong. When Qianlong traveled to the south of the Yangtze River, he listened to Ji Xiaolan's "strong amenity" and went to Luoding to taste the Longshi patties.
After tasting the rice cake, Qianlong found that it was tender and smooth, not like ordinary rice cake. Emperor Qianlong saw that it looked like pig intestines, so he renamed it as "intestinal noodles". This snack, which the emperor could not forget, gradually became popular in Guangdong and became one of the most popular snacks in the region.
