One of my coworkers came over to show me how to make the traditional celebration food - made primarily after the birth of a baby. It's four, water and sugar boiled into a thick paste. Once it's the right consistency - which requires a lot of effort (see picture), you pour melted butter and honey over the top. It is very sticky, very sweet, and very oily. You pinch it off with your fingers and slurp it down. I chose the butter/honey route, instead of the other alternative: oil and sugar water. Not my favorite local food, but I've also had much worse in other parts of the world.
