Today I will tell you about some Internet celebrity delicacies that were once popular across the country. In the end, they were short-lived and now almost no one eats them. The taste is very average and has no connotation. They are destined to be forgotten by everyone.

1. Smashing Bowl Wine

Around January 2018, a shop in Xi’an Yongxingfang Food Street launched “Smashing Bowl Wine”. The business was not good, but someone took pictures The short video was uploaded to the Internet and was watched by many people. It spread quickly. Many people wanted to come and experience the excitement of bowl throwing. The business is gradually booming, and thousands of bowls can be sold a day. With the popularity of Shaanwanjiu, Xi'an has also become an Internet celebrity city.

In fact, bowl-thumping wine is also called Zhuangxing wine. It was drunk by ancient soldiers before going to the battlefield to strengthen their courage. After the soldiers drank the wine, they threw the wine bowl down to express their ambition to regard death as home and bravely fight the enemy. For example, this is how Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin.

To turn such a serious bowl-banging wine into a money-making tool is not only disrespectful to the ancients, but also has a bad connotation. It is purely an eye-catching entertainment project, nothing like it. The connotation is gradually forgotten by the public.

2. Smoke ice cream

Smoke ice cream, as the name suggests, is an ice cream that can emit smoke when eaten, which sounds very magical.

When I was traveling, I saw this kind of smoke ice cream for the first time in a food pedestrian street. It was red and green in color, very beautiful, and had a crispy texture. When I took a bite, it sprayed out white smoke. It feels a bit fairy-like. This ice cream stall is very simple, less than one square meter, and can be run by one person. It has quickly opened up markets across the country.

The reason there is smoke is because of liquid nitrogen. The price of smoke ice cream is very expensive, 5 pieces cost 10 yuan. It tastes no better than normal ice cream, has no milky flavor, and does not have a delicate texture, so no one will buy it a second time after trying it.

The most important thing is that the temperature of liquid nitrogen is minus 196 degrees Celsius, which makes it easy to get frostbite when eaten. In the past, children put smoke ice cream in their mouths, causing their lips to stick together and cause frostbite. Such unsafe and unpalatable things are destined to be eliminated.

3. Crispy Pork Belly

Crispy Pork Belly is grilled pork belly. It was originally very common. After professional filming and short video spread, it became an Internet celebrity overnight. gourmet food. Because the skin is roasted to a golden brown and crispy state, it always feels "cracky" when cut with a knife, which sounds very appetizing.

When I was traveling, I tried crispy pork belly once and waited in line for nearly 20 minutes. The first bite was really crispy, but the second bite made me feel very greasy. After all, it was under the skin. It's just thick fat. For a delicacy like this, 2 pieces at most is enough. It is very high in calories and greasy. It is okay if eaten with rice, but not many people can finish it as a snack.

And its price is very expensive, tens of yuan per kilogram. In order to pretend to be popular, I heard that some stores even hired "group performers" to queue up and let everyone compete to buy it. But most people won’t eat this greasy and expensive thing a second time.
