Netizen: My hometown was demolished, and even the Chinese toon trees are gone. In our Fujian, generally no one eats it. When I was little, I ate Chinese toon pancakes once at a friend's house, because her mother was from out of town, and every spring I could see her father taking him to pick Chinese toon. I do not remember what that pancake tasted like, I just remember it was shockingly delicious!
