How it's used

Cranberries are not a traditional part of local Cantonese cuisine and are primarily encountered as imported dried snacks or in Western style baked goods. When referring to the fresh fruit, the term is used in a descriptive sense rather than as a staple ingredient. Most people will specifically clarify if they are talking about the dried version by adding 乾 to the end.
