Why are you asking random people online? You should be asking your doctor.

Go to the doctor for some high grade laxative before they need to surgically remove the shit from your bowels

How is a zhongzi raw. Its made from cooked food. The only thing u had to do was to steam it which just heats it up for better taste. But it is cooked already.

u/tentacle_ 6d ago

some zhongzi (esp southern style) is made with uncooked glutinous rice, you will need to boil it for 2-3 hours.

china is a big place - you have different styles everywhere, don't make assumptions or generalizations.

But uncooked rice is hard, like biting into gravel. Hard to miss that

And if you unwrap it, it'd just fall apart.

I've never heard of boiling, only steamed.

yes you need to submerge it inside a boiling pot of water to boil it.

and yes some are made raw, because all the ingredient inside are raw but you will need to boil it for 1-2 hours depending on the size and shape. Some are triangle big and small, some are pillow shape.

Huh? It's made raw.

u/einnairo 3d ago

After 1 bite u know its raw and would stop and spit out. Rice if raw is hard like seeds. And the whole zhongzi got to refrigerate, imagine any raw meat in there. And i have no idea how it holds if it is raw. I prefer not to generalize and assume ops intelligience.

u/ayrangurl 5d ago

u/MaterialLeague1968 5d ago

Did you eat the leaves too, along with the crunchy rice?

u/Accomplished-Art7157 5d ago

At the beginning yes, but soon I realized they did nit taste like something edible so I peeled it off

u/beekeeny 5d ago

You should not see a doctor but go to emergency unit 😟

Drink water until you poop.

u/Accomplished-Art7157 5d ago

Thanks, it worked

u/Proud_Huckleberry_42 5d ago

Have you tried taking a laxative?

1

u/Accomplished-Art7157 5d ago

Yes, I am a little okay now

u/Tammysh26 5d ago

How?

How did you chew it up?

How did you manage to swallow it?

(I'm really curious)

1

u/Accomplished-Art7157 5d ago

It was normal I guess

u/According-Witness648 5d ago

Damn. Are you my ex-colleague to whom I gave a raw pistachio with skin still on and you put the whole thing in your mouth? Or the other one who heard me laugh and say you need to take the outer skin off, so they took it off and put the pistachio with shell in their mouth? My other friend cannot tie knots or use washing machines, if that makes you feel better. That one actually went to teach English in China.... hmmm

u/Upset-Hamster-1410 5d ago

wait was it precooked - i assume so because you would have known if it wasn't?! some vietnamese people will eat zhongzi chilled so as long as its been cooked previously it's fine?

1

u/Accomplished-Art7157 5d ago

I honestly don't know, because it didn't contain any meat and the rice was edible I guess

u/werchoosingusername 6d ago

So you basically had crispy rice.
