For example, after decades, people are familiar with "Tangseng Meat", Baota Sugar, Jigong Kaiwei Dan, sour plum powder, etc., and most of them are lost in the historical trend and no longer appear. However, some snacks are still "tenaciously sold" and are often encountered in supermarkets. They can be described as real "old snacks" and children after 00 have basically never eaten them. Most of the people who still love to eat these snacks are parents who have "feelings" and are not young.
Bee honey and croissant honey are often sold together. Both kinds of snacks are especially sweet. There are fragrant sesame seeds on the honey knife, which are crisp and sweet and bright and golden in color. It looks particularly attractive. Eating sweetness used to be happiness, but now eating sweetness is a burden. Although there is still sales, sales are far less than before.
White rabbit toffee, a kind of toffee from Shanghai, was a high-grade product when I was a child. The iconic red and blue candy paper with the jumping white rabbit printed on it. Candy is covered with edible rice paper, so a few of these candies can be put in my pocket. That's something worth showing off with children.
There is often an old man pushing a bicycle selling wind-blown cakes at the school gate. These cakes are so thin that they seem to be blown off by a gust of wind. There are sometimes a few fragrant sesame seeds on golden glutinous rice cakes. When the blown cake melts in the mouth, break it off and put it in the mouth. The thin cake will melt quickly in the mouth surrounded by saliva.
Fig silk, a kind of fig silk, may not be known to many people until now. There are no figs in it. Figs are ripe, soft and rotten, and it is not easy to make silk. So at that time, the 50-cent "shredded fig" really didn't contain figs, but it was sweet and sour and really popular.
Tree peony bark is a roll made of hawthorn, which is sweet and sour and appetizing. Packed in transparent plastic paper, parents did not object to children eating this snack at that time. After all, eating hawthorn is good for your health.
Mairujing Mairujing was a "luxury" drink at that time, and it was also from Shanghai. In the hot summer, it is a special honor to invite children to drink a cup of malt extract at home. Ordinary families generally can't afford it, and it is very expensive. The materials used in malt extract are all good things, including milk powder, condensed milk, cocoa powder, egg powder, cream, glucose and other ingredients, which are not only nutritious, but also delicious.
-Lao Jing said-flying rabbits, time is fleeting. Time can take away many things and leave something behind forever. These "old snacks" in the depths of memory, although missed, are no longer missed. Let these memories of childhood be sweet forever.
