U+9900 "餀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+9900 "餀" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rare and historically obscure Chinese character that falls under the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) Unified Ideographs block, representing a logogram used in classical or literary contexts. Its meaning is generally associated with spoiled or rotten food, particularly in the sense of food that has become inedible due to decay, though it is not commonly encountered in modern standard written Chinese or everyday vocabulary. The character is composed of the radical for food or eat (飠) on the left, combined with a phonetic component that hints at its pronunciation, which is recorded as "hài" in some historical dictionaries. Due to its infrequency, "餀" is not part of the standard character sets for modern computing in most East Asian languages and is primarily of interest to scholars of ancient texts or those studying the full historical range of CJK characters.
