The origin of the Zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) is a traditional Chinese festival custom. Here is an English translation of the origin of Zongzi and the history of eating them:

The origin of Zongzi dates back to the Warring States period (475-221 BC) in ancient China. According to legend, Zongzi was created to commemorate the poet Qu Yuan, who was a loyal minister to the state of Chu. When Qu Yuan was exiled and eventually drowned himself in the Miluo River due to political intrigue, the people of Chu threw rice into the river to keep fish from eating his body. To prevent the rice from getting wet and sinking, they wrapped it in bamboo leaves, creating the first Zongzi.
Eating Zongzi has become an integral part of the Dragon Boat Festival, which is held on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. This festival is celebrated to honor Qu Yuan and to keep his spirit alive. People eat Zongzi, race dragon boats, and engage in various other activities to commemorate this important figure in Chinese history. The Zongzi itself is a symbol of loyalty, love, and respect for Qu Yuan.
