This is the truth that "one thousand dollars can't buy two abalones". The so-called "head" refers to the number of abalone with a uniform size of Sima Jin (about 0.6 kg), such as 2, 3, 5, 10, 20 and so on. The fewer the heads, the more expensive the abalone is. So there are also abalone called fish, but they are not fish. They belong to primitive marine shellfish and monocoque mollusks. Abalone is one of the precious "sea treasures", with tender meat, delicious taste and rich nutrition, and has the reputation of "soft gold" in the ocean.

Abalone is delicious, nutritious and very delicious, and it is also very popular with everyone. Abalone meat is also very tender and has the reputation of "soft gold" in the ocean. People who often go to restaurants to eat abalone know that waiters usually need several heads. Usually there are several heads in a catty. Strictly speaking, a catty is Sima Jin, and there are 650 grams in a catty, but many times it is based on the market catty.
