After eating delicious food for so many years, it turned out to be a scam! There is no other way but to blame the vast and profound Chinese culture and too many “traps” in Chinese food.
Sichuan Malatang
Many people think that Malatang comes from Sichuan, right? After all, people in Sichuan don’t like anything spicy, so when you hear the name, you think it’s a Sichuan delicacy. But in Sichuan, it’s called Maocai, not Malatang. In Sichuan, don’t think about looking for authentic Malatang on the streets. When you see the word Maocai, go and eat it. That’s Sichuan style “Malatang”.
Roasted gluten
When I was in Luoyang, there was a roasted gluten food that was often written as a Xi'an snack. When I went to Xi'an, it became a Jinan snack, and it was a sacred item in Jinan. It became a Wuhan snack, but when I was in Wuhan, it was labeled as a Chengdu snack... Finally, I found out in Chengdu that this product is Shenma, a famous snack in Central Plains! It turns out that roasted gluten is a famous snack in China.
Shaanxi Roujiamo
Authentic Shaanxi Roujiamo contains only one thing, and that is meat! Meat! Meat! Nowadays, the roujiamo seen all over the country is added with coriander, cucumber shreds or lettuce.
Yangzhou Fried Rice
When I first came into contact with Yangzhou fried rice, it was in the school cafeteria. There were several kinds of fried rice in front of my aunt, including egg fried rice, ham fried rice, tomato fried rice, soy sauce fried rice and Yangzhou fried rice. fried rice. I was young and ignorant at the time, so I thought I had bought some special snacks. When I returned to the dormitory, I told my classmates that a local Yangzhou classmate said that he had never heard of Yangzhou fried rice...
Pineapple buns
You think it is Is it called this because it’s made from pineapple? It doesn't taste like pineapple at all. Some people say it looks like it, but it doesn't look like pineapple at all, but more like a lump. Um, please imagine for yourself, I'm sorry to make everyone sick.
Chongqing Chicken Pot
When I was in school, I liked eating a chicken pot outside the school very much. I would go there when I had time. Many people should have eaten or heard of it.
When you see the name of this dish, everyone will think it is from Chongqing! However, when I asked the locals in Chongqing, they didn’t know what Chongqing Chicken Braised Pot was. The Chongqing people responded with a confused look, “There is no such dish in our country, okay?”
