Citizens joke: This is "Hermes" in vegetables
Yangzi Evening News (corresponding reporter Xu Fugeng, reporter Dong Wanyu) Nanjing is expected to be cold in the spring after the snow in the past few days. The vegetable market that has just opened after the long Spring Festival holiday welcomes citizens who want to try early adopters.
Yesterday morning, the reporter saw at the Houzaimen vegetable market that there are already operating accounts that sell many people's favorite toon heads, but the price has reached 160 yuan/kg!
Entering the vegetable market, all kinds of vegetables are lush and green.
At a vegetable stall, a small pot of toon sprouts is particularly eye-catching. The stall owner divides the toon sprouts into small portions and puts them together with the same "fashionable" Yanghua radish, small cabbage, edamame, etc. A citizen said jokingly: "Look, these are the 'Hermes' in vegetables!" A small toon head, the size of a gardenia in Nanjing in summer, is 20 yuan on the scale, which has exceeded the price of meat.
The stall owner said: Before the Spring Festival, there were toon heads. At that time, they sold for 200 yuan a kilogram and 10 yuan for a tael.
"As various spring vegetables such as chrysanthemum brain, wild artemisia, spring bamboo shoots, pea leaves and other vegetables have been listed, the price of toon has just dropped a little." The stall owner told reporters that because it is the first crop of toon sprouts just listed, the price is natural. High, few citizens are willing to pay for it, causing most stall owners to dare not purchase.
"Only individual patrons come to buy, and more are restaurants and restaurants to book."
"According to the situation in previous years, Chinese toon head will be listed in large quantities at the end of this month and early next month, and the price will be relatively close to the people at that time." Mr. Xu, a citizen, told reporters that Chinese toon has the reputation of "vegetable on the tree". Because of its unique taste and fresh taste, it is fried with it. Eggs are an indispensable main dish on the table of Nanjing citizens in spring.
It is understood that every March and April is the season for toona sinensis, but this year it was listed earlier, more than half a month earlier than in previous years.
At the scene, some willing citizens bought a small handful of toon sprouts, saying that they were spending money to let their families taste "the taste of spring".
More citizens dare not approach the "high price" toon sprouts.
