The pot helmet is said to have originated in Shaanxi, originally as dry food for soldiers or civilian workers, and its roughness is thus evident. But as with many things, once they enter Chengdu, the land of heaven, they indeed become different.

The old white flour and pepper salt are still available in popular stores, but the brown sugar helmets are hard to find." 锅盔相传起源于陕西，本来是士兵或民工的干粮，其粗糙由此可见一斑。但正如很多东西一旦进入天府之国成都，肯定就会变得不一样。红糖锅盔亦不例外，由最开始的白面很快就发展为红糖，凡是能想的出的食材都可以跟锅盔搭配起来，因为成都锅盔的结构是中空的，所以有很大的变通余地。以前的白面、椒盐在大众小店尚还有售，但红糖锅盔却已经踪迹难觅。”

Three Cannon is a traditional Chengdu, Sichuan Province snack and belongs to the ChengDu cuisine family. The main ingredients of San Da Pao include glutinous rice, brown sugar, sesame, and soybeans. The unique name, translating to "Three Big Cannons," originates from the unique preparation process.

Three Cannon is not served cold. Instead, the semi-finished buns are placed in a pot and kept warm over a gentle flame until they are ready to be done. This ensures that each serving of San Da Pao is still slightly generous when eaten. Known for its sweet and savory flavor, non-sticky texture, and affordable price, San Da Pao is widely loved.

immigration procession of "Huguang immigrants filling Sichuan," the Chen family from Yongding County, Tingzhou, Fujian Province, landed with the immigration procession in the territory that originally belonged to Royal Highness Zhu hundreds of years ago, opening up wasteland and living a self-sufficient life.
