Food Gifts from Vietnam

After our parents return from Vietnam, they brought us several snack gifts from Vietnam. The first one is some kind of traditional bakpia from there, while the other one is some kind of peanut.

The initial research of the brand "Khong Sac" via google has provided us with several images of lovely airlines stewardess taking selfie pictures with caption on Vietnamese language.

Hmmm... We guess either the brand is sponsoring an airlines there, or the meaning might be different :D.

Wait a Second, This is Not A Stewardess!
























Anyway, for the second gift, the peanut, after closer inspection, it is revealed to be a package of dried lotus nut. After a quick search via Google it is revealed that this is a delicacy and considered as medicine in Chinese and Vietnam culture. Neat!
