Introduction

Chinese snacks (小吃, xiǎochī) cover a wide range of small dishes and packaged treats eaten between meals or as street food. They include savory bites such as spiced tofu and tea eggs, sweet rice snacks, and regional specialties like Xi'an's Roujiamo or Wuhan's Hot Dry Noodles. Many snacks are sold in bags as ready-to-eat products, while others are freshly prepared at stalls and night markets.
