Sweet potato is not only easy to survive, but also has high yield. So I will eat sweet potato noodles, sweet potato leaves and sweet potatoes. In the 1960s and 1970s, there was a general shortage of food in rural areas. In addition to the state's public grain, the rest of the rice and wheat planted are simply not enough to eat, and the families with less labor force are even more short of food.

After harvest every autumn, we mainly eat sweet potatoes. In winter, sweet potatoes are stored in the cellar until the following spring. Sometimes I steam a pot in the morning and eat it all day. I eat hot food in the morning, cold food at noon and at night, and then have some porridge.
