It certainly won't give Hong Kong's comedians anything to worry about, but the city's biggest Beijing-loyalist party, the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong, is showing its sense of humour.
It's having a little laugh at itself after criticism that its frequent feasts are a somewhat cheap way to woo voters.
Its Lunar New Year stall at Victoria Park from February 5 will feature a new jokey slogan and will even sell T-shirts emblazoned with it.
It goes: "It's not just about the snake feasts, vegetarian banquets, biscuits and rice dumplings."
Yau Tsim Mong district councillor Chris Ip Ngo-tung said: "It is to ridicule ourselves.
"Such banquets are popular. We have never made a secret of them. [The slogan] lets people know … we still do lots of other work in a wide range of areas."
