The Food Groups
Vegetables, fruits, grains, sweets and animals are all represented on the offering table. Cooked animal offerings may be a remnant of live animal sacrifice from the not too distant past.
“We have prepared the offerings and auspicious things. We have prepared the offerings and they are ready right here now. Forgive us all if it is too much or too few. We offer hogs head, duck, chicken, crab, fish, liquor, nuts, fruits and desserts according to the requirements. Come and take them. Protect us all and bring us friendship, peace, happiness, successes, prosperity, away from all evils and illness.”
