Not only does it require processing, manpower, etc., but the price is also cheap. Is there something strange? First of all, the price of these fish is cheap because many merchants use fish scraps to make up the number. When we are working in eat small fish, we often find that there may be only one fish in a bag, but there are three or four heads, which is obviously just to make up the number; There is also a kind of fish that is directly made from spoiled and even dead for a long time, otherwise the price would not be so low. At present, the dried fish we buy in the market are all vacuum-packed. In order to preserve them for a longer time, merchants usually add a lot of preservatives, which is not good for human health if they eat them often.
Let's think about it. When we pass by the pond by the river, we can often see some dead fish floating on the water. The cost of this kind of fish is much lower than that of live fish, so many unscrupulous merchants will use this kind of fish to make dried small fish. Because the dried fish will add a lot of seasonings to cover up the peculiar smell of the fish itself, we can only feel very hemp and spicy when eating it. In fact, we can't eat the taste of the fish itself at all, even if the rotten fish is made into dried fish, we can't find it. In order to save costs, merchants generally use such fish to make, otherwise they can't make profits at all, and businesses can't make themselves lose money. So these dried fish on the market, for the sake of our health, don't eat if you can.
