A white porcelain bowl is filled with water, and there are 5 pieces of potatoes in the water. The consumer said that buying a portion of potatoes for 18 yuan only had 5 thin slices. “You really can’t afford your potatoes, they are so expensive.

Called the hot pot assassin.

The reason

Consumers reported on social platforms that when they ate at the Yibanu Maodu Hot Pot Restaurant in Xi'an, the potato slices they ordered for 18 yuan only came with 5 thin slices.

Hot pot restaurant: Selenium-rich potatoes are different from ordinary potato chips

In response, the staff of the hot pot restaurant involved said that the 5 potato slices were selenium-rich potatoes, which were different from ordinary potato chips. Many elements are "priced according to actual conditions."

In reality, many businesses sell high-end products under the name of "selenium-enriched" or other names, but are these products genuine? Value for money is really questionable.

No matter how you try to fool them, potatoes are potatoes. If the price exceeds their own value, you will definitely feel like you have been cheated.

These are the reasons. In 2017, more and more organic products appeared on the sales platform. From vegetables, eggs, and meat, as long as they were marked with the word "organic", the price was like a rocket, soaring into the sky. Unfortunately, the fact is that these Sometimes the nutritional value of things with organic labels is not as good as ordinary ones.

When seeing a dish with only 5 slices of potatoes, most consumers will probably sigh, this is too little. When I look at the price, whether it’s 18 yuan or 9 yuan, I’m afraid I’ll sigh, “It’s too expensive.” Why? Is it because potatoes are “rich in selenium”? That’s not good value for money. The price should be clearly marked and the portions should be clearly marked on the menu so that customers can order clearly. In the final analysis, the point that netizens question is not whether the potatoes are rich in selenium, but that they did not feel that they were worth the money.

Let’s talk about the hot pot assassin I’ve seen.

Last year I went to eat hot pot with my friends. I ordered a lotus root dish, which they finally served. There were only six slices on the plate. 18 yuan can buy two or three pounds of lotus roots. He actually cut six slices for me, which made me laugh and cry. Of course, I didn't argue with them at that time, but I never went to his hotpot again. Eat at the store.
