Octopus balls, also called octopus roast, are traditional Japanese snacks. After it was introduced into China, it was liked by many people, and it was found in almost every street when the fire reached its peak. But now octopus balls are gradually decreasing, mainly because the price and taste are not as good as at the beginning. With the rise of other snacks, octopus balls gradually quit people's lives, and now they can only be seen in some shopping malls.

1, high cost and high price.

Authentic octopus balls need octopus fish meal, fish fillets, laver, salad dressing, octopus sauce and the like, which are relatively expensive. The octopus balls will be coated with a lot of soy sauce. If you want to keep the taste, you must use high-grade soy sauce. Ordinary snacks are too extravagant. A box of meatballs may cost 45%, and if sold, it must be around 7-8 yuan. This is a little more expensive than other traditional snacks. After that freshness, people no longer like octopus balls. At this time, if sellers want to keep profits, they must use some low-quality materials, but different materials lead to different tastes, and people gradually lose interest in it.

2. The rise of other snacks

Now, when I visit the snack street, I see mostly barbecue, chicken, gluten and mutton skewers, and octopus balls are basically gone. These traditional snacks have certain advantages. With the same money, people prefer to eat meat. Although there are some meat products in octopus balls, to put it bluntly, they are vegetarian balls. In recent years, people have begun to advocate tradition again, and some traditional snacks have gradually appeared in front of people, such as rice cakes and Chinese buns. These snacks are delicious and full, and many people will make different choices. The status of octopus balls is getting lower and lower, and it gradually disappears in the snack street.

Octopus roast is different from ordinary snacks in production cost and technology, and it needs to keep the raw materials fresh. At present, octopus balls can only be seen in some shopping malls, and there are few other places.
