5. Pineapple Buns

This sweet bun is a favorite in Hong Kong and Chinatowns across the US. Despite its name, there is no actual pineapple in pineapple buns! Its name actually comes from the rippled way they look when they come out of the oven.

6. White Sugar Cake

This street food is not your typical cake. White sugar cake is something you have to taste to believe, as it is steamed instead of baked.

This snack may have a rather off-putting name, but it is a must try. This deep fried tofu is slathered in a chilli or hoisin sauce, and absolutely delicious.
