Usually, moon cakes are common - a simple dough filled with various things, including jam; red bean paste; dried lotus seed paste; salted duck egg yolks; jujube (date) paste; seed paste including watermelon seeds, sesame seeds, peanuts, almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and occasionally winter melon, jinhua ham, or rock sugar; or yam paste.
Also, pomelos are eaten - a yellow-green citrus, bigger than a grapefruit, with sweet flesh and a thick spongy rind. The flesh tastes similar to a sweet grapefruit, with a bitter membrane. The spongy rind is not eaten. Some dry the skins and use them for lanterns, while others wear the skin as an improvised hat (see the first LOLcat here: http://smillas.unambitio.us/limecat.jpg I personally think that's a pomelo, even though some say it's a lemon or lime).
Other foods are eaten, but ... I don't know them. Hope that helps!
