In the process of travel, street snacks have always been the focus of travel. Among the six elements of travel, "eating" is ranked first. In fact, it means that when traveling to different regions, the first thing you need to taste is local snacks and dishes, because these dishes are the essence of food culture in this region, which can bring you a good travel experience. Everyone likes food, so street snacks are often deeply liked by foreign tourists. When it comes to street snacks, China, a gourmet country, naturally has many unique local snacks. Our street snacks are diverse and delicious, but some countries' street snacks are actually not inferior to ours, such as our neighbor in the west.

This country is India. India is the largest country in South Asia. It is a multi-ethnic country composed of more than 100 ethnic groups. The main ethnic group is Hindustan, which accounts for 46.3% of the country's total population. At the same time, it is also a country with a long history. Although the birthplace of ancient India does not completely belong to today's India, ancient India and the cultural construction that affected it were as early as 2500 BC. Some civilizations were born here, about 1500 years ago, and the arrival of Aryans also brought Central Asian civilization, so India is actually a multi-ethnic and multi-cultural melting pot, kneading all these cultures together.

Therefore, in the food culture, India, which is multi-ethnic and has a long history, naturally has many street snacks, most of which are curry-based. Among them, there is a relatively unique thing that attracts people's attention. In fact, it is the root vegetable with "Indian cut cake", which is a relatively common plant in India. It is actually the root of a tree and can also be regarded as a fruit. However, although it is a fruit, it is particularly large and looks like a big bucket. Its peel absorbs yellow and its pulp is white, which can only be planted in soft areas. Each one has a weight of several hundred kilograms, and the fruit can grow all year round, but it is not easy to grow so big, so it is a strange fruit in India, which tastes similar to yacon and is regarded as a small fruit or staple food by local people.

The reason why some people call it "Indian cut cake" is also because this plant is valuable. We all know that cutting cake is an expensive street snack, and it may cost a lot of money if you cut it once. Even before, there was a case of knocking over a piece of cutting cake to compensate160,000. Although this root vegetable is not so exaggerated, it is actually not cheap. Local street vendors sell it in slices, but the slices are real, and the thin layer can also penetrate sunlight. However, it costs 20 rupees to sell one slice, which is equivalent to our RMB 2 yuan money. It doesn't sound much, but combined with the price of India and this fruit of hundreds of pounds, we know how high the price of this plant is, and hence the nickname "Indian version of cut cake".

However, it is said that this kind of fruit is actually not delicious, and the pulp is relatively hard, mainly because it is fresh. It is difficult for non-locals to get used to it, which sounds similar to our cutting cakes. I don't know if you have ever eaten cut cakes. Welcome to leave a comment.
