Dragon's Beard

Weird

A friend of my daughter's husband lives in China, and sent them a package of Chinese goodies. These included a box of Dragon's Beard Cake.



It's supposed to be the Chinese equivalent of candy floss, but it's nothing like it. It comes in solid blocks that are crumbly and taste of a mixture of peanuts and sesame; there's supposed to be some coconut in them, too, but (fortunately) I couldn't taste any of that in the ones I tried.

So far, I've eaten three of them. They suck the moisture right out of the mouth. I've had to drink something to get them to break down enough that I could swallow them.

Either:
    I'm eating them wrongly.
    Something happened to them during transit and they're not how they should be.
    They're meant to suck the moisture out of your mouth.

Hmm, I could use the ones I have remaining to write on walls.
