Every Tet, families are busy preparing snacks to entertain guests and enjoy together in the first days of the new year. If you're still unsure about which type to buy, read the article below to explore the lucky and prosperous snack options.
1. Pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, watermelon seeds
Pumpkin seeds, watermelon seeds, and sunflower seeds are familiar and popular snacks during the spring season. Whether it's sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, or watermelon seeds, they all contain essential nutrients that the human body needs. These seeds bring abundance and prosperity to households during Tet.
It's not difficult to find these seeds on the market nowadays. However, as they may contain added flavors, consumers should choose to buy from reputable manufacturers to ensure safety for their health.
2. Ginkgo nuts
Ginkgo nuts symbolize family happiness, harmony, and warmth if consumed in the early days of the new year. They are rich in nutrients, supplementing essential trace elements and minerals for the body.
This type of fruit is used to make delicious snacks for families. If you have elderly members in your family, consider giving ginkgo nuts as Tet gifts. When buying ginkgo nuts, choose ones with a strong, fragrant aroma and high quality.
3. Hawthorn fruit
Hawthorn fruit symbolizes prosperity and goodness. Products made from hawthorn fruit such as canned, sliced, or dried hawthorn have a sweet and sour taste that is easy to enjoy. Especially in the early days of the new year, overindulgence in oily and fatty foods may lead to bloating, indigestion, and difficulty in digestion. Eating hawthorn fruit can help alleviate these symptoms and promote efficient digestion.
4. Peanuts
Peanuts are seeds rich in nutrients for the body. Peanuts are also known as 'seeds of longevity.' Eating peanuts during Tet signifies longevity, vitality, early childbirth, and health prosperity.
The market is now offering a wide range of processed peanut products with added flavors for extra appeal. However, roasted or boiled peanuts are the best choice for your health, retaining all the nutrients for your body. Also, avoid consuming too many peanuts that are seasoned with various flavors as they tend to be dry and heating, which is not beneficial for your health.
5. Almonds
Almonds are nuts packed with excellent health benefits, containing good fats, fiber, and protein, with no cholesterol. During Tet, it's advisable to avoid indulging in these snacks to protect your health and prevent weight gain.
Moreover, almonds symbolize bringing luck and convenience, making them suitable for consumption during the start of the new year.
When purchasing almonds, opt for plump, golden-brown nuts. Avoid choosing hollow or unevenly sized nuts.
