The most worthwhile souvenirs in Chengdu: panda theme series gifts, beef products, dog candy, etc.

1. Panda Theme Series Gifts

Sichuan is the land of abundance and the hometown of pandas, so the local area also likes to play panda cards. Many gift shops and specialty stores can see panda theme products, from clothes and hats to backpacks and dolls, which are quite memorable.

2. Beef products

Yak is abundant in western Sichuan, so all kinds of yak meat are also very good, and there are many kinds and tastes. It is very good to buy it for yourself or give it as a gift to relatives and friends.

3. Shit candy

There are a lot of shit candy in Chengdu, which is found in almost every specialty store. Although the brands are different and the packaging is different, this shit candy is placed in a conspicuous position. There are two opinions about the origin of the name "shit candy" in the mouth of ordinary people. One theory is that the shape and color of this candy are very similar to dog shit, hence the name "dog shit candy". Another way of saying it is that in difficult times, peddlers pick goods and go to the countryside to change their junk, among which maltose is one. Poor people don't even have the junk to coax their children with maltose, so they coax them to say, "That's shit candy, you can't eat it." More people talk about it, and this kind of candy is really named "shit candy".
