We all love Chinese New Year snacks, don't we? Yes, they’re delicious, but they also carry a lot of meaning! There's a good amount of cultural symbolism behind your all our favourite CNY snacks: Pineapple tarts to bring prosperity, peanut cookies for fertility, and bakkwa for luck!

Audrey and Ryan take a look at how this all started: the hidden meanings, what they all signify, and how they've evolved over the years as palates change (charcoal truffle tarts, anyone?).
