Text symbol

What 飺 means

It means rejecting food or being picky about it.

The classical Chinese work Guanzi (管子) uses 飺 for a picky eater in the line 飺食者不肥. It turns food refusal into an analogy for refusing frank advice: someone who rejects useful correction cannot thrive.

what does 飺茶吃 mean?

One regional gloss reads it as mooching someone else's tea or food.

A note on a tea scene in Dream of the Red Chamber glosses the phrase this way and links it to speech in China's Guanzhong region (as of 2026).

Why does 飺 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
