As the saying goes, "There are three treasures in the Northeast, ginseng, mink, and ula grass"
Especially ginseng, because of its high nutritional value, it can also be used as medicine, and it is impossible to send it to the elderly.
However, there is such a wild vegetable in the countryside, although the "appearance" is ugly, and the name is not good.
But the nutrition is higher than ginseng!
It will appear after a thunderstorm in the countryside, and people in the countryside are not rare, but the city sells for 100 yuan a pound and is still in short supply!
So what exactly is this amazing wild vegetable, and how did it come to be?
Thunder
I believe that people who grew up in the countryside once had the experience of digging wild vegetables.
Especially every time I just experienced a thunderstorm, my grandparents couldn't wait to go to the mountains to find a wild vegetable.
The appearance looks a bit like fungus, after experiencing the soaking of rain, the color is black and green, soft and soft, and the rake is raked.
From a distance, it looks like the excrement pulled out by a poisoned person, and it looks like it's hard to describe.
Therefore, it also got a not very nice name among the people, called "Lei Gong".
They also have different names in different places.
Don't look at their "ugly", but they are very sought-after existence, not to mention the high nutritional value, the taste is really delicious.
From the appearance, it is not difficult to see that it is a member of the fungus family, and it actually looks eight points similar to the fungus.
"Lei Gong" is actually not a small number, because it has a strong ability to adapt.
No matter whether it is cold or hot, it cannot stop its growth.
Especially in places rich in calcium, it is simply a crazy growth.
If it can be well hydrated, it can grow more unscrupulously, but it really lives when the rain is scarce.
It's just that the long-term lack of water will be as brittle as dry fungus, and it will break directly when you touch it with your hand.
They rely on this state to survive the lack of water, and when they wait for a heavy rain, they can immediately rejuvenate.
It swells up quickly and no longer shatters at the touch like a dry fungus.
This is why the elderly like to pick this wild vegetable after the rain, and the volume of Lei Gong feces after the rain increases several times.
As long as you lean down and take a closer look, it is easy to find pieces of Lei Gong.
Moreover, it is no longer easy to break during the picking process, and the picked quality is more complete.
But even if the condition is complete, it still looks so unbearable, and the appearance is basically hopeless.
People can't look good, and Lei Gong's is the same, ugly is ugly, but if it is chopped and wrapped into dumplings, it is simply not fragrant and big.
The love of the older generation for it is truly beyond words, but this once ubiquitous wild vegetable seems to be slowly disappearing.
Delicious and nutritious
In the past, people only knew that the taste of Lei Gong feces was more delicious, whether it was dumplings or fried and eaten.
Few people know that this wild vegetable is also quite rich in nutrients.
It is even said that the nutritional value of Lei Gong's is comparable to ginseng, and it is more than ten million times better than the gods in taste.
Is there any truth to this statement?
After conducting research on Lei Gong Poop, people found that Lei Gong Poop is indeed a very healthy food.
We all know that protein plays a pivotal role in the human body, and this wild vegetable is very rich in protein.
But that's not all, and people are now paying more attention to nutritional balance.
There are also strict requirements for trace elements in addition to the three major nutrients, and this wild vegetable has a large number of trace elements and vitamins.
Each of these plays a certain positive role in health.
Given the environment in which it was grown, it is also quite rich in minerals.
People have to sigh that it is incredible that a small Lei Gong can gather so many nutrients in one.
People who are hot may wish to try more Lei Gong, enjoy the delicious taste and at the same time, the fire in the body will be reduced unconsciously.
And eating more of this wild vegetable can also protect your eyesight and make your eyes see more clearly.
However, although Lei Gong is good, it is not perfect, because they are cold, so they are not suitable for those with cold constitution.
Otherwise, it will only backfire, making the body worse and worse, if you are really hungry, you can taste it once in a while, and you can't eat it for a long time.
Vegetable 越来越少
In our memory, Lei Gong will be all over the mountains after almost every thunderstorm.
As long as you pick up the grass and trees, you can definitely see them growing vigorously on the ground, even if you close your eyes and hug them on the ground.
can have a lot of gains.
But now this wild vegetable is becoming less and less common, so that it is difficult to see in life.
I occasionally saw it in the vegetable market, only to find that it was no longer the worthless wild vegetable it was at the beginning.
casually sells for 100 yuan a catty, and it is also very popular, often in short supply.
This also makes many people wonder why this once so common wild vegetable is now so scarce.
All of this stems from the destruction of the environment by people, and the area of urbanization is increasing with the development of the economy.
The countryside is becoming less and less, and more and more woods are turning into high-rise buildings.
The place where Lei Gong feces grows has also been greatly compressed, and there are fewer and fewer places where it can grow, and the yield will naturally be lower and lower.
And although Lei Gong has a very strong adaptability, it can survive in various environments.
But they also have "natural enemies", that is, these current technology-rich agricultural pesticides, as well as fertilizers.
Lei Gong's and this "technology" do not seem to be compatible, and the pollution caused by these chemical components has become their most feared "natural enemy".
This has also led to this once worthless wild vegetable becoming a fragrant bait that people can't afford to eat now.
In some big cities, Lei Gongshit has become the object of people's pursuit, and it is difficult to buy it even if you have money.
Even people living in rural areas rarely enjoy this delicacy.
In fact, not only is Lei Gong's feces gradually decreasing, but many other wild vegetables are also gradually withdrawing from people's tables.
It's not that people don't like to eat it, it's that they can't eat it, and people used to eat wild vegetables because they didn't have anything to eat.
Nowadays, people eat wild vegetables to show their status and improve their lives.
Wild herbs are gradually becoming a "luxury".
The gradual reduction of Lei Gong's feces is actually a reflection of the importance of environmental protection.
Only if everyone pays more attention to the protection of the environment, these wild vegetables can come back, and these childhood flavors can be continued.
