American Rice Cakes[edit]

I believe that this article would benefit from a discussion of the American variant of rice cake. Completely different from its asian counterparts, American rice cakes are produced from puffed rice that are formed and shaped into round discs. Unsweetened rice cakes are popular with American dieters due to their low calorie content.

This article shouldn't appear under the title "Rice cake" because the crispy kind mentioned above, made of puffed rice, is completely different. I propose moving to "glutinous rice cake," with redirects from Chinese "nian gao," Japanese "mochi," and Korean "duk." The article would describe all three.

I think an article about the American rice cakes, flavored by butter/cheese/etc needs to be written; covering flavors, cost, brands, and manufacture etc. Will try to add to article requests soon (in the morning), unless someone else does (especially if I forget).

Filipino Chinese[edit]

Have deleted the bit saying Philippino Chinese hail for Guangdong, as this is misleading. While some come from Guangdong, many come from Minnan. I don't have a citation for this though so I left it out. - matt —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.119.39.145 (talk) 13:37, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

年糕/粘糕[edit]

On the article summary panel (on the right) it says the rice cake is, in chinese, 年糕, where as in the first paragraph of the body it says the name comes from 粘糕. So is there an agreement on what it actually is? Perhaps I should have a look next time I'm at the chinese store. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.232.134.168 (talk) 21:11, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge from Page1Kue Keranjang[edit]

The page and topic of Kue Keranjang should be moved to here and merged with Nian gao here under the the sub-topic of Nian gao Culture in South East Asia for being the same subject.
