Dubai is the most prosperous place in the world, full of luxury cars and the only seven-star hotel in the world. ? Not only people who have never been to Dubai are very curious about Dubai, but even people who have been to Dubai are very curious. ? In Dubai, there is a very popular fruit, and that is dates. However, the sales volume of dates in China is not high. Dates are a very easy-to-digest food and are very popular in Dubai. Dates can be washed and eaten directly, can also be used to make porridge or steamed rice, and can also be used to make candies, biscuits, etc. ? Dates are different from red dates. Red dates can replenish blood and promote blood circulation, but dates do not have this effect.
Although dates and red dates are both dates, their appearance is somewhat different. Date palms look more like candied dates. However, if you look at the appearance of dates, they are still very different from Chinese red dates. They are more like Chinese candied dates, but the date skin is much thicker. Dates taste very sweet, but they don’t taste particularly slimy. Dates are a daily snack for people in Dubai, and their status in our country is like melon seeds. ? Date palm also has another alias, Iraqi date, because this kind of date has a high planting area in Iraq. It is a cash crop and a symbol of wealth. Date palm trees have relatively hot requirements for the growth environment, and The growing environment in the Middle East is relatively hot, which is very suitable for date palm production, which is of great benefit to the local people.
There are three reasons why dates are not popular in China:
1. Different geographical locations. The geographical locations of China and Dubai are very different. Dubai is located in the Middle East and the weather is relatively hot, so there are almost no fruits in the Middle East. Date palm is one of them, so dates are very popular in Dubai. China has a relatively mild climate and a relatively rich variety of fruits, so Dates are less attractive to Chinese people. ?
2. Date prices vary. For our country, dates are an exotic fruit. After introduction, the price is relatively expensive, the taste is not particularly good, and the price/performance ratio is relatively low. Therefore, most people are not willing to pay a huge price for dates, and in Dubai, dates are not expensive, so they are worth eating.
3. Not to your taste. As the saying goes, where the soil and water support the people, the reason why Chinese people don’t like to eat dates is that the taste of dates is not popular among Chinese people. China’s economic level is getting higher and higher, so people who have the financial ability to buy them are very popular in China. There are foreign fruits, such as cherries and durians, but the taste of dates is too sweet and still a bit sour, which does not suit the taste of Chinese people, so dates are not popular in our country. ?
So now do you know why dates are not popular in China now?
