Wonton is a national snack, but it is called differently in different regions.

For example, places like Beijing and Shanghai are called wonton, Guangdong is called wonton, Sichuan is called wonton, Taiwan Province and Fujian are called flat food, and Hubei is also called wonton, but sometimes it is also called dumplings.

Historical evolution:

Yang Xiong's Dialect in the Western Han Dynasty mentioned that "the name of bread is Tun". Wonton is a kind of cake, the difference is that there is meat in it, which is cooked and eaten; If cooked in soup, it is called "soup cake".

China ancient people thought it was a sealed steamed stuffed bun, which had no seven tricks, so it was called "chaos". According to China's word formation rules, it was later called "Wonton". Wonton is no different from jiaozi at this time. Since the Tang Dynasty, the names of wonton and jiaozi have been formally distinguished.
