Celebrating The Dragon Boat Festival

It's time to celebrate The Dragon Boat Festival (端午節) \^o^/! It's on the 6th of June this year to be exact. The traditional food for The Dragon Boat Festival is Zong zi (粽子), which is a glutinous rice ball with a filling, wrapped in bamboo leaves. Every year my mom is making a hundred of zong zi's to celebrate this festival ^o^. Have you eaten this before :)?
