The origin of the snail soup:
1. In the mid-1980s, there was a grocery store on Jiefang South Road that also sold dry-cut noodles, and its clerk used to take a handful of dry-cut noodles in the morning and cook them at the next door granny's snail stall, and then someone else would buy the greens to mix them up. Granny Wang Kee, who sold the snails, thought the powder tasted great, so she sold it.
2. In the 1970s and 1980s, the Gubu Street vegetable market became the largest distribution center for wholesale raw snails in Liuzhou City, and the audience of the nearby Workers' Cinema liked to stroll around the neighborhood after the show, forming the Gubu Street night market. People in Liuzhou have always been addicted to snails and rice noodles, and some night market owners operate both boiled snails and rice noodles. Some diners like to add snail soup with a lot of oil and water to the rice noodles, thus forming the prototype of snail noodles.
3. Late one night in the early 1980s, a few outsiders came to Liuzhou, to a nearly closed rice noodle stalls, because there is no bone broth, there is only a pot of boiled snail snail soup, the stall owner put the rice noodle into the snail soup to cook, together with the greens, as well as peanuts and other vegetables, a few outsiders ate it and shouted that it was delicious. The stall owner later gradually perfected its ingredients and production, made the snail powder.
