Wen's eating a small family
There are five kinds of "cheat people" snacks in the snack street, which are expensive and unpalatable. Tourists love to buy them, and locals seldom eat them, whether traveling alone or going out with a group. Whenever we go to a new place, we are most concerned about not where we live, how long we live, whether the environment is good or not, etc., and often the first thing we ask is the local food. Which one is delicious and where to buy authentic ones are our biggest concerns. Especially if you can catch up with the local snack street or food city, you can't eat it all.
However, many friends often "go on a whim and return home disappointed", because the so-called "local food" always tastes different from what they imagined, and even when they are disappointed, it is really expensive and unpalatable. And some vendors, purely for the purpose of making money, shout and steal the column under the guise of local famous snacks, which is not the smell at all, and it is inevitable that people will be surprised.
what's even more amazing is that where you go, these "famous snacks" go with you. The so-called "name" is mixed with familiarity. But to be honest, these are actually quite "cheat people". They are not delicious, and they are not special products. They are even sold by locals. Tourists love to buy them, but locals rarely eat them. Today, take these five kinds as examples, and friends can refer to them.
Longxu Crisp is a specialty of Anqing, Anhui Province. It has been circulated among the people for more than 2, years, and even the emperor loves it, hence its name. The main raw materials of Long Xu Su are refined wheat flour, maltose, sesame seeds, peanuts, etc., with milky white as the main color, light green, light pink, etc., and many filaments are wrapped on it, which still looks very appetizing.
but there are some things that can be seen, but not eaten. Because many stalls make the dragon's beard crisp, which is "fake-style, like goods", attractive in appearance, with a mouthful of flour, and expensive to sell. Before we went out to play, a box of 35 yuan in a small street was really too pit.
When you go to Changsha, Hunan Province, it is inevitable to taste the stinky tofu, a local delicacy. Stinky tofu doesn't look good at all, and it smells stinky, but once you eat it, you can't stop. The first time I ate authentic stinky tofu was when I went to Changsha with my friends. At that time, I was "shocked" by its appearance, and I pushed it several times before I ate a piece. Unexpectedly, I finally ate three servings, which was really enjoyable. When I bought it myself later, I didn't buy the authentic one. It looked the same, but it tasted different. I don't know how that stinky juice was made. It smelled like chicken shit, and the oil was fried brown. The price was not cheap. It was 18 yuan per serving, which was really a loss.
The authentic Shanghai crab roe buns actually taste good. The stuffing of crab roe bag is made of crab meat and crab roe, and filled with delicious chicken soup. The stuffing is thin, fresh and fragrant. However, many merchants think that the cost of crab meat is too high, so they use duck egg yellow top package, and after some "special" treatment, they are shoddy, especially fooling some foreign tourists, but they can eat it in one bite. The stuffing is not authentic, but the price hasn't changed much. It hurts to buy a few duck-egg-yellow buns for tens of dollars.
As a veteran in barbecue, mutton kebabs have always been loved by friends. However, everyone should also know that the price of mutton in the market is normal at 5-1 yuan, but in some snack streets, 5 yuan, 1 yuan and even 5 yuan, these are actually not "serious" mutton, which are all passed off by other meats after special treatment, and there is a big lump of oil in the middle. I have heard before that the oil in the middle of mutton skewers is actually true sheep oil, which is because of its existence.
The cut cake in Xinjiang is mainly made of nuts and preserved fruits, which is somewhat different from the glutinous rice and jujube we usually eat. Dried fruits weigh a lot, and these things are valuable and expensive, so a small piece of cake will cost tens of dollars. If it is in some small streets with large traffic or scenic spots with more tourists, the price will be higher. But because I'm not interested in nuts and sweet things, it's naturally not worthwhile for me to spend dozens of dollars to buy a little cut cake to eat.
In fact, no matter who comes to a new place, the first thing that comes to mind is to taste the local food and characteristics. However, often we go to cities other than where we live, either for business or for sightseeing, and it is only a short stay. The vendors in the snack street naturally know that, so what they sell is named as local characteristics and famous snacks, because they don't ask us to turn back, even though they know that we won't.
However, these five kinds of cheat people snacks, regardless of where they go, should be bought as little as possible. It's okay to buy authentic snacks, but when they encounter non-authentic snacks, they are expensive and unpalatable. Locals rarely eat them. Even if they buy them, they will probably be wasted.
