　　臘八粥也叫七寶五味粥，我國喝臘八粥的歷史，已經有一千多年。最早開始于宋代。每逢臘八這一天，家家都要做臘八粥。到了清朝，喝臘八粥的風俗更是盛行。在宮廷，皇帝要向文武大臣賜臘八粥。在民間，家家戶戶也要做臘八粥，祭祀祖先;同時，合家團聚在一起食用，饋贈親朋好友。

　　“臘八”還是佛教的盛大節日。以前各地佛寺作浴佛會，煮粥供佛。傳說吃了以后可以得到佛祖的保佑，還可以增福增壽。所以人們把它叫做“佛粥”。南宋陸游詩云：“今朝佛粥更相饋，反覺江村節物新。”

　　中國各地臘八粥的花樣很多，其中以北京的最為講究，粥里有紅棗、蓮子……總計不下二十種。初七的晚上，就開始忙碌起來，洗米、泡果，在半夜時分開始煮，一直燉到第二天的清晨，臘八粥才算熬好了。你想，這樣復雜能不好喝嗎?講究的人家，還要先將果子雕刻成各種花樣，再放在鍋中煮。臘八粥熬好之后，要先敬神祭祖。之后要贈送親友，一定要在中午之前送出去。最后才是全家人食用。

　　一碗粥有這么多知識，中國真不愧是文明大國啊!我真自豪自己是中國人!
