cjk unified ideograph-2ea5e

Spoiled-food character

7087/7473

𮩞 means food—especially rice—spoiled by damp or heat. The Analects, a collection of Confucius’s teachings, warns against eating food gone this way. Later dictionaries also use 饐 for pickled food and a steamed rice-flour cake in a cookbook from the Song dynasty.

Text symbol

What 𮩞 means

It is the simplified Chinese variant of 饐.

The older form combines a food component with one hinting at sound. In the Analects, 饐 pairs with 餲, meaning food whose smell or taste has changed, in a list of things not to eat. Shuowen Jiezi, an early character dictionary, defines it as rice harmed by damp.

Why does 𮩞 show as a box?

Your font or text app may lack this glyph. Extension F is a set of less common Han characters; a font that covers this character can display it. A box is a display problem, not a different character.
