First, Beijing bean juice
As the capital of China, besides many famous architectural attractions, Beijing cuisine "bean juice" is also a tradition of old Beijing. Many Beijingers grow up eating from childhood, which is a must for breakfast in Beijing. Bean juice is a light green and blue soup left after starch is taken out when mung beans are ground into vermicelli or dough. It is said that Mr. Mei Lanfang had to drink a bowl every morning, but this kind of bean juice that Beijingers love to drink is unacceptable to countless foreign tourists, and he basically vomits after drinking it.
Fig. 2. Houttuynia cordata Thunb.
Houttuynia cordata Thunb , also known as broken ear root, is an indispensable "delicacy" for Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan people. There is an unspeakable strange smell. If local people or friends can't eat it, it's a nightmare and it smells bad. Many friends who like to eat think it's delicious, especially in Yunguichuan. Cold dried Chili noodles are delicious and also a polarized food.

Third, the boy's egg.
Boy's egg looks no different from ordinary tea eggs, but its making method and technology are unacceptable to ordinary people. The so-called boy's egg is cooked with the child's urine and is a traditional snack in Dongyang, Zhejiang. Moreover, the price of boys' eggs is twice as expensive as that of tea eggs, and the demand is often in short supply. Some Dongyang people buy dozens of them for the whole family in one breath, and some old people insist on eating two a day. As for the taste, only friends who have eaten it can describe it in detail. I won't eat anyway. Of course, some people say that its taste is nothing special with ordinary tea eggs, but it is a bit coquettish.

Fourth, smelly mandarin fish.
As a representative of Anhui cuisine, the stinky mandarin fish has a great reputation and is favored by local people and some foreign tourists. The smelly snakehead gives off a slight odor, but its fish is as white and firm as garlic cloves, and its meat is very delicious. Personally, I think it is delicious. Of course, some friends are not used to the smell of stinky mandarin fish and avoid it. This may be the influence of different tastes!

Fifth, the cow is flat.
As another special food in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, the flat pot of cattle has different opinions. Some people find it simply unacceptable, while others find it indispensable. In the network celebrity circle where the Internet is developed, Niu Bianguo once became the challenge "food" for some bloggers. In Yunnan, Guizhou and other ethnic minority areas, after the cattle are slaughtered, the grass that has not been fully digested in the intestines and stomach of the cattle is usually taken out, squeezed out, and then slowly stewed with local wild Chinese herbal medicines and spices in a pot to make an authentic beef flat hot pot soup base. The soup base made in this way has a rotten smell! Add it to the pot to cook, and the fragrance will immediately spread to Fiona Fang Shili, stinking. If you don't like it or haven't eaten it, you may want to vomit when you smell it, but as a local specialty food, many people like it.

Six, snail powder
Snail powder, as one of the special foods in Guangxi, is now a special food all over the country, and even some special schools offer snail powder specialty. After selling goods live online and convenient logistics, snail powder has become an indispensable convenience food for many people. Snail powder from Guangxi has conquered many people's taste buds with its unique sour taste, but some people are uncomfortable to smell it, let alone eat it.

The so-called "a hundred flowers blossom, different landscapes" may be used to describe the "food" in these characteristic places, which is also particularly appropriate! After all, everyone has different tastes and habits in every place, and the food is different! Looking forward to sharing hometown food.
