    菜市场这个风格如你们所说就像几十年前一样,只有我们国人知道,无论卫生以及食物丰富的种类早已经今非昔比了。这就是除了基建外,生活水平和生活质量的进步。我是1988年生人,老家生活在一个中国俄罗斯边境小县城里,小时候菜市场海鲜都没几样还都是冷冻的,菜的种类也没有那么多,对我们当地菜市场的一点点,一年年的变化特别有感触。这也是为什么我们要修建高铁,高速公路,中国很大,通过快速的物流运输可以让南北都享有以前只有在本地才能吃到的新鲜瓜果蔬菜,鱼虾海鲜,降低这些食材等的成本,让人们经济得到改善,这也就是我们总说的一句话,“要想富,先修路”。提升了生活质量的同时也保障了种植养殖业的收入。

      @@JohnnysCafe_ This is referring to "heating" and "cooling" foods. Think of it as a sort of typology not too dissimilar to foods relating to certain humors of Hippocratic medicine. In this typology, you don't want to overload on either of them, so if you are going to eat a bunch of fried foods (heating by nature), you should have some foods that are cooling to balance it out. In practice, this just ends up being a sort of pairing system.

      在门口有物价表。每个物品都有价格区间。政府有专门的部门来管理,称为物价局。比如前几年猪肉太贵。政府就会给养猪的农户养殖场做补贴。鼓励多养猪,让猪肉回归正常。中国政府很注重民生相关的价格。因为在中国有句话叫“民以食为天”。这是老百姓最基础的需求,必须要得到保障。所以中国人均GDP不是很高但是老百姓依然能生活的很好。

    The preserved eggs are made from duck's egg. There are 2 main types of way that we do the preserved eggs. The black one, or what you usually call "century egg" is made from preserving it with quicklime, salt, clay, ash, which gradually increases the PH towards the alkaline side. This is eaten "raw", and has a pungent smell which some people like it and some done. In Southern China, we normally eat it with porridge, or mix it with tofu and soya sauce, sesame oilr. It is supposed to reduce heat inside your body, so when you have a soar throat with eating too much fried, spicy stuff, you take this to balance off.
    The white one is preserved with salt and ash only, without the quicklime. This tastes salty and it has to be cooked.
    In Southern China, we put the egg yolk in moon cakes, and rice dumplings with bamboo leaves. Egg yolk are used in a lot of dishes like stir frying it with crab roe, and so on so forth. Just be creative!

    the stem vegetable's name is 莴苣(wō jù), can be also called as 莴苣笋(wō jù sǔn) or 莴笋(wō sǔn). The stem part is crunchy and fresh with a little bit sweet taste, some people also eat the leaf part although it's a bit bitter, bcs in Chinese medicine system the vegetable is way "凉"(liáng, which means cool), reduces fever and causes diuresis, invigorates the circulation of blood, so very good for health.

      Not only westerners, some Singaporens also insist that Chinese people are short of food and suffering from starvation. Around 2010, I was working in Singapore and had the chance to chat with Singaporen face to face. An impressive experience was that some Singaporen insisted that I made a wise decision by leaving poor China to escape starvation there and congratulated me for the ability to get enough food in Singapore. Despite I firmly expressed to them I did not the experience of famine and starvation, none of them trusted me and were angry saying I was lying for 'face'. Similar story happened in other countries than Singapore where the Singaporen immigrants think those from China moved overseas because of China being poor not able to supply enough food to the people. Some westerners who ever worked in Singapore told me they feel Singaporen discriminated Chinese from China and asked me why. I believe Singaporen would give the answer 'because Chinamen are not well behaved', but this reply is definitely not true since some Singaporen are not well behaved as well and well behaved Chinamen would be discriminated too. The true reason from my perspective is that Singapore as a tiny country is much more wealthy than China and Singaporen thus attribute this better wealth status to their superiority over Chinamen in terms of gene, IQ, EQ, etc. Not only Singaporen, but some Hongkongers and Taiwanese believe they are superior to Chinamen, in spite of the fact that majority of people from these three regions are descendants of refugees from China mainland. It is disappointing to notice that wealth growth does not make people of these three regions more humane and open-minded, but more arrogant. However, Singaporen are much better than Taiwanese, who have been made and spread massive lies on China under the organization and support of their government, not only in Chinese media but also in media of other languages including English.

      True experiences, bro, no lie at all. A typical funny scenario regarding Singaporen is like this:
      In front of westerners, they speak English and also let them know they are good at Chinese/Mandarin as well; in front of Chinamen, they only speak a little Mandarin at the beginning, and then transfer to English with the reason that they knew only a little Mandarin/Chinese, even though you noticed them communicating in Mandarin/Chineses without any difficulty before talking with you. In front of westerners, Singaporen normally clarify and purposely emphasize they are Singaporen, not Chinese, particularly with the presence of Chinamen; however, in front of non westerners, most likely they do not mind to be taken as a Chinese.

    China's farmers market rich in agricultural and sideline products from the Chinese Ministry of Agriculture in 1988 proposed the construction of "vegetable basket project." The first phase of the project has established central and local production bases for meat, eggs, milk, aquatic products and vegetables, as well as service systems for the breeding of improved varieties and feed processing, so as to ensure that residents can eat fresh vegetables all year round. By the mid-1990s, the "vegetable basket project" had focused on solving the problem of market shortages. "Vegetable Basket" products sustained rapid growth, fundamentally reversed China's non-food supply shortage situation. In addition to milk and fruit, the average per capita share of other "vegetable basket" products has reached or exceeded the world average. This is a great project that enriches the tables of 1.4 billion people.

    Roger Moore! What a great name you've given to this Chinese burger. Ro in Roger sounds similar to the Chinese character Rou (肉) which means meat. Ger in Roger sounds similar to the Chinese word Jia (夾) which in this context means sandwich as a verb. Moore sounds similar to the mandarin pronunciation of Mo (饃) which means steamed bun. So Rou-Jia-Mo (肉夾饃) is meat sandwiched in a bun. Enjoy your Roger Moore!

When I travel around the country, I am most interested in visiting local markets to learn about the unique species and goods available there. Two years ago, I visited the Zhuanxin Farmers Market in Yunnan, and it was indeed very lively. My personal favorite was the tofu pudding with rice noodles, a combination I had never thought of but found to be incredibly delicious.

    The flavor will be very good in your mouth.

    Hello Luke and Naomi, I can feel you were really curious about all kinds of products and snacks in the market. Whenever you want to have a try, you can say “Keyi Chang Chang ma?”, for “Can I have a taste?”. When you would like to buy some but afraid to buy too much in case of food waste, you can maybe say “ban Jin” for “a quarter kilogram” for example for the cherries, since “ban” is half and “Jin” is half a kilo.
