Is a mung bean cake sweet or savory?


It's a sweet. During the Moon Festival the Asian people make moon cakes.
Usually this is a similar cake, but with a whole egg yolk in the center to
represent the moon.

The common ordinary ones come in packs of four by the register. Make sure they
feel a bit soft to the touch or they may not be fresh. They are two dollars.
