We have childrens stories that the moon is made from green cheese. I think that is bc a new cheese has the same shape as the moon. I was just wondering if other countries said the moon was made of cheese too?

We describe the moon as mooncake. So that is why we have moon-cakes on the Mid-Autumn Day on the fifteenth of lunar August. As to the story, it goes to the other response to your discussion. The reason why we have Mid-Autumn Festival has the meaning of getting all the family together on that day just like the full moon.
