Folk snacks have become "altar regrets", and the sad legend behind them
Once, the aroma of cut cakes wafted through the streets of the city and became a delicacy on people's lips. However, as the price of cut cakes continues to rise, this traditional snack has gradually withdrawn from the stage, which makes people sigh. Now, another well-loved folk snack has embarked on the road of no return of "altar regret", which is the rock sugar gourd in the hearts of the public.
Looking back, rock sugar gourd was once a classic choice on the streets, evoking people's taste buds with fond memories of childhood. Children often follow the cries of the rock sugar gourd vendors, happily savoring the sweet and sour taste. However, today's rock sugar gourd has encountered a huge dilemma.
Although there are still many rock sugar gourd stalls in the market, offering a variety of flavors such as marshmallow, orange and yam beans, there is a general feeling that rock sugar gourds are not as coveted as they used to be. The dilution of the taste buds has become a reason for many people to choose to avoid it, and it is also a key reason why this delicacy is gradually falling out of favor.
The "altar regret" of rock sugar gourd evokes the thinking of traditional food. In today's society, how to inject innovation while inheriting traditional flavors and rejuvenating folk snacks is an urgent challenge to be solved. Perhaps, only on the stage of the integration of tradition and modernity, can we witness the re-emergence of folk snacks and move towards new glory.
