[Snack street 5 kinds of "pit people" snacks, expensive and unpalatable, tourists love to buy, locals rarely eat] Regardless of independent travel or with the group out to play, every time we go to a new place, the most concerned is not where to live, how long to live, whether the environment is good or not, etc., often the first to inquire, are local food. Which is delicious, where can we buy authentic, is our biggest concern. Especially if you can catch up with the local snack street or food city, it is difficult to eat this trip all over again.
However, many friends often "go away with pleasure and return home with disappointment", because the so-called "local cuisine" is always different from the imaginary taste, and even when there is disappointment, it is really expensive and unpalatable. And some vendors, purely for the purpose of making money, bark, under the guise of local snacks, steal beams for pillars, which is not the taste at all, and it is inevitable that people will be surprised.
What is more "strange" is that where you go, these "famous snacks" follow you to wherever, the so-called "name", is mixed with familiarity. But to be honest, these are actually more "pit people", not delicious, not specialties, even local people sell, tourists love to buy, locals rarely eat, today to these 5 kinds of as an example, friends can refer to it.
Dragon whisker puff pastry is a specialty of Anhui Anqing, which has been passed down to the people for more than 2,000 years, and even the emperor loves to eat it, hence the name. The main raw materials of dragon's whisker puff pastry are wheat extract powder, maltose, sesame seeds, peanuts, etc., with milky white as the main color, there are also light green, light pink, etc., which are wrapped in layers of filaments, which still look very appetizing.
However, some things are okay just by looking at them, and if you eat them, you can forget them. Because many of the dragon whiskers made on the stalls are "fake handles, look goods", the appearance is tempting, bite a mouthful of flour, and sell very expensive, before we went out to play, 35 yuan a box on the street, really too pit.
When you go to Changsha, Hunan, you can't help but taste the local food stinky tofu. Stinky tofu doesn't look good at all, and it smells stinky, but once it's eaten, it can't stop. The first time I ate authentic stinky tofu, when I went to Changsha with my friends, I was "shocked" by its appearance, I pushed and shoved a few times before I ate a piece, but I didn't expect that I finally ate three servings, which was really too addictive. Wait until later buy yourself, did not buy the authentic, the look looks no difference, but it is different to eat, do not know how the stinky juice is mixed out, asked to have a smell of, and the oil is fried brown, the price is not cheap, a portion of 18 pieces, really too much loss.
Authentic Shanghai crab yellow bun, the taste is actually still good. The stuffing of the crab yellow bun is made of crab meat and crab yellow as raw materials, and it is filled with delicious chicken soup, and the skin is thin and the filling is large, fresh and fragrant. However, many merchants feel that the cost of crab meat is too high, so they use duck egg yolk to top the package, after some "special" treatment, shoddy, especially fool some foreign tourists, often eat but can eat out in one bite. The stuffing is not authentic, but the price has not changed, dozens of dollars to buy a few duck egg yolk buns, think about the meat pain.
As a "senator" level in barbecue, lamb kebabs have always been loved by friends. But everyone should also know the price of lamb on the market, 5-10 yuan a string is normal, and in some snack streets, 5 yuan a string, 10 yuan three strings, or even 5 yuan two strings, these are not actually "serious" lamb, are other meat through special treatment after the impersonation, and a large lump of oil in the middle, before I heard that the oil in the middle of the lamb skewers, in fact, is the real mutton oil, that is, because of its existence, to make the lamb skewers more "realistic", so everyone is still cautious about buying well.
Xinjiang's cut cakes are mainly nuts and preserved fruits, which are somewhat different from the glutinous rice dates we usually eat. Dried fruit things themselves are pressed, and these things are or very valuable, the price itself is also expensive, so a small piece of cake, it will cost dozens of dollars, if in some people with large traffic in the small streets, or tourists more scenic spots, the price will be higher. But because I am not interested in nuts and sweet things, so let me spend dozens of dollars to buy such a little cake to eat, naturally I feel that it is not worth it.
In fact, no matter who it is, but whenever we get to a new place, the first thing that comes to mind is to taste the local cuisine and characteristics, but often the reason why we go to cities other than where we live, either on business, or travel, just to make a short stay, those vendors in the snack street naturally know, so the things they sell, only under the title of local characteristics, famous snacks, because they do not ask us to turn back, but also know that we will not turn back, even if we eat something unpalatable, the next day do not buy it, It also does not affect the normal business of others, do you say that this is the reason?
However, these 5 kinds of "pit people" snacks, don't care where to go, try to buy as little as possible, buy authentic is good, encounter not authentic, expensive and unpalatable, locals are rarely eaten, even if bought, it is estimated to be wasted.
