Popcorn.

My hometown is a remote small county. At that time, the county only had two east and west roads. The intersection of the two roads was a department store. It was the most prosperous place in the small county and there were many delicious food there.

There is also a supply and marketing cooperative in Hexi. I only remember that the candy varieties in the Hexi supply and marketing cooperative are more comprehensive than those in department stores, and some of them are peanut sticky.

Peanut sticky is one of the most luxurious snacks in childhood.

The peanut kernels are wrapped in white frosting. They are crispy, fragrant and sweet, and you can't get enough of them.

When summer comes, the most moving music in the county is the long-drawn-out shouts of "Selling-ice-sticks--".

I didn't need to speak, I just stood in front of my father, and my father took out 5 cents from the pocket of his Zhongshan suit and gave it to me.

I bought a popsicle in a hurry and carefully licked it in small bites. In the end, I even licked the stick and lost the taste before throwing it away.

And secretly made a wish: When I grow up, I will sell popsicles and eat enough!

The happiest thing about being in elementary school is that the class organizes mountain climbing, because you can eat bread and soda from the store, which are unparalleled delicacies in the world.

The first day I took the huge sum of money my mother gave me and ran to the store to buy two bottles of soda and a loaf of bread, which I carefully put into my little cloth bag.

I walked all the way, and the soda clinked in the cloth bag behind my buttocks.

I have to check it again before going to bed at night, for fear that the soda and bread will disappear.

The next day I was absent-minded while climbing the mountain, so I waited for the teacher to say "Let's start the picnic." With a command, the boy bit open the soda cap and drank it eagerly. A burp was all I felt satisfied.

When I got home, my mother's dinner was ready - a big steamed bun with stick noodles.

Dad poured some large granulated sugar into my bowl. I pursed my lips and said, "Why do you pour so much saccharin for me? It's too bitter!" Dad smiled and said, "This is granulated sugar, not saccharin. Eat it."

Look." I broke off a piece of steamed bun, dipped it in some sugar and put it in my mouth. It was really sweet. That was the first time I got to know another form of sugar - sugar.

My favorite uncle’s second brother comes to my house because every time he comes he buys a big bag of sour three-color candies and fills my trouser pockets.

I straightened my back and walked, wanting others to know that I had lots and lots of candies.

I peeled off the cellophane and put a piece of candy in my mouth. It was sour and sweet, and even the sky seemed to change color.

I am growing up day by day, the county is prosperous day by day, and there are more and more varieties of snacks.

But those delicious snacks I ate when I was a child are deeply engraved in my memory. I will never forget them. They cannot be forgotten, because they were the most beautiful colors and tastes in my carefree childhood!

Born in the 1980s, I loved eating snacks when I was a child, but conditions were limited at that time and there were only a handful of snacks available (popsicles, snowflake cakes, etc.).

Among them, the snack that impressed me the most and was the most unforgettable was the sour plum powder.

Mentioning sour plum powder.

I believe that many of his peers born in the 70s and 80s know him well.

It is a powder snack in a small bag. The bag is equipped with a small plastic spoon. There are various shapes on the top of the small spoon (including animal shapes and animated character shapes). At that time

Collecting the spoons in sour plum powder is also one of the important assets for friends to show off.

So what does the sour plum powder that costs two cents a bag taste like?

It's a taste that makes you frown after taking one big bite, and makes you tremble after taking two big bites. This is the feeling of eating a big mouthful.

Eat it in small bites and the taste will be completely different.

Eat a little at a time, put it on the tip of your tongue and taste it slowly. The sweetness is sour and the sweetness is revealed. The vivid feeling is really addictive.

This is why it comes with a small spoon.

Time flies and years pass by.

Twenty or thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Now the living conditions are better and there are more snacks to eat. When I face all kinds of snacks, I can no longer find the same taste as before.

For me, sour plum powder is not just a snack, it represents the innocence and beautiful memories of childhood.

When I was a child, there were very few snacks I could buy. In winter, I could buy large pieces of candy, and I could fry some cornflakes or melon seeds myself. They were all grown at home. In summer, I also ate tomatoes grown at home.

Cucumbers, occasionally adults go to the Melon Shack to buy some watermelons and cantaloupes.

I can’t eat it more than a few times a year.

Seeing this title reminds me of the difficult years 40 years ago.

I was born in the 1960s and was born in a rural area. When I remember, it was already in the 1970s. At that time, life at home was very difficult. It was good to be able to fill my stomach all year round. There were no snacks to eat.

Picking a cucumber in your garden in the summer and frying a pot of popcorn in the winter is a real pleasure.

Unlike now, there are all kinds of snacks and snacks. Cherish it, live one more day, and enjoy one more day.

When talking about childhood snacks, I feel like I can’t finish talking about them.

We ate all kinds of snacks during our childhood. Do you still remember cigarettes and candies?

When I was in school, cigarette candies were once popular throughout the campus, especially boys, who liked these cigarette candies very much, and most of them loved to show off and display them in the class.

I bought a pack of cigarettes and candies on the way to school, and I often couldn't bear to eat them.

If you don't look carefully, you really can't tell whether it's candy or cigarettes.
