Pork is the main meat source of China people.

The price of pork has not increased much in the past 20 years. Twenty years ago, a few dollars a kilogram, twenty years later, more than ten dollars a kilogram. Besides, people eat less now, and one kilogram of meat can eat several meals.

But since last year, the price of pork has been rising all the way, from per kilogram 10 to 30 in 20 yuan and 30 in 40 yuan. The price of ribs even rose to 40 to 50 yuan per kilogram, almost doubling. What is even more incredible is that this price exceeds the price of some seafood. It is reported that with the end of the closed fishing season in the South China Sea, the price of seafood in the Guangzhou seafood market has fallen sharply, and the average price has dropped from 80 yuan/kg to 40 yuan/kg.

It has become the daily laughingstock of Guangzhou people to eat seafood instead of pork. But seafood is definitely a luxury for mainlanders. From small to large, the nine bowls of seats in the village are all pork, except chicken, duck and fish. Whole chicken, duck and fish are the most important dishes. After all, it takes a year or two to raise chickens and ducks at home. You can only eat at a party. The fish at the banquet in my hometown are mainly silver carp and grass carp. Now it seems that they are very cheap fish, and no one wants to eat them. But in the past, mom and dad sold eggs for fish. Pork is the most common dish at a banquet. Boiled and steamed pork with vermicelli, elbow, minced pork, crispy meat and sausage, plus two dishes of stir-fry and a soup, a pig can set dozens of tables.

"I can't afford pork, I can only eat seafood." This may be a daily routine for residents in coastal provinces such as Guangdong and Fujian to show off their wealth.
