"Three or two friends get together, drink a glass of wine, eat some side dishes, don't get drunk, and live like a fairy!"
This may be the favorite life of men in the 80s and 90s, but I don't know if you have found it?
Over time, these 6 previously popular appetizers have been "left out in the cold", and some of them have only memories hovering in our minds......
What are the 6 types of snacks? Can you still eat them?

The first salted duck egg, some people may ask, is it also a snack to eat?
Yes, in those eventful years, very few people would buy eggs or duck eggs, most of them pickled their own salted duck eggs or salted eggs and served them as an accompaniment to the drink.
Marinated salted duck eggs
The most typical is the Northeast people, and the salted duck egg is a very classic dish of the Northeast appetizer.
Northeast people often wash fresh duck eggs, then marinate them in salt water and pepper powder for a period of time, and put them in jars to seal them.
When someone arrives at home, the housewife will cut them in half and arrange them on a plate on the table, while the host of the house will invite friends or guests to enjoy the delicious salted duck eggs.
Even if there is only one person, when he is free, the Northeast man will pick up the salted duck egg, knock it on the table, and then make a hole, while drinking a little wine, while sucking a mouthful of salted duck egg, that life is beautiful.
In the 80s, salted duck eggs were not only served as an appetizer, but also as a breakfast on the table, and because the egg yolk was delicious, salted duck eggs also became a favorite of children.
It is a pity that although salted duck eggs are delicious, people should not eat more, especially pregnant women and children, because of the high salt content.
Perhaps it is for this reason that salted duck eggs are gradually "left out".
Although many people still eat it, salted duck eggs are rarely served as an accompaniment to alcohol.

This kind of appetizer must be familiar to everyone, in the eighties and nineties, it can be described as a first-class delicacy.
As the name suggests, this dish is made of pig tail as the main ingredient, although the process of making it is more complicated, but it is worth our patience.
It seems to be a dry pig's tail, but in fact there is not a lot of meat, and when you bite it, the meat is directly separated, and it tastes fat but not greasy, making people want to stop eating it once, and it can be called the favorite appetizer of drinking friends in the 80s.
However, unfortunately, with the development of the times, a variety of foods have emerged in an endless stream, and people are no longer enthusiastic about pig tails. After all, the position of the pig's tail is a little awkward, and young people would rather eat the pig's large intestine than be sensitive to the "pig's tail".
Of course, there is one of the most important reasons that today's pig tail market is expensive, and the minimum price is 30-40 yuan per catty.
The market price of braised pig tails
What is the concept of 30-40 yuan a pound?
This is equivalent to the price of beef, and many people can't even afford to eat it, so how can they use it as a snack?
Do you still eat pig tails?

It's a food that northerners may rarely know, but southerners certainly know about it.
Literally, we can know that this kind of food is actually obtained from the waste residue left after boiling fried lard.
But that's exactly what happened.
In the 80s, some people often used lard residue as an accompaniment to snacks, but what did it taste like?
The older generation has the most "right to speak" in this point, and the lard residue tastes crispy and delicious, and even the more you chew, the more flavorful it becomes.
It is worth noting that in addition to being used as an appetizer, people at that time would also chop lard residue into minced pieces and mix it into dumpling filling, and even more so, children would put it in their pockets as a snack.
However, it is such a popular food, and as society has developed, it has gradually been "left out in the cold", and although some people still eat lard residue, it is only a very small number of people.
But it's reasonable to think about it, after all, for young people, this kind of food is not at all comparable to kebabs and hot pot.
●○茴豆○●
When it comes to fennel beans, I can't help but think of Mr. Lu Xun's article "Kong Yiji", the protagonist Kong Yiji often goes to the Xianheng Hotel, spends 8 cents to buy a glass of old rice wine, and then spends a penny to order a plate of fennel beans, and then enjoys it comfortably.
It may be because Mr. Lu Xun wrote the plot of Xianheng Hotel and fennel beans vividly, and Kong Yiji was included in the textbook.
Therefore, fennel beans are sought after by people, and many people even go directly to Zhejiang Xianheng Hotel to experience the taste of a handful of fennel beans and old rice wine.
Speaking of the texture of fennel beans, it is even better than the taste of fried peanuts, although it is made from broad beans, it is crispy and delicious after frying, and you can't stop eating it.
In addition to frying, boiled and stir-fried fennel beans also have a unique taste, which was loved by people in the 80s and 90s.
However, for some reason, fennel beans have gradually been "left out", and now there are chestnuts and sweet potatoes sold in the city, but few fennel beans are sold.
●○Salted boiled soybeans○●
"Soybeans with wine last forever. ”
In the 80s and 90s of the last century, people's living standards were limited, and few people could not afford to buy meat, so they often ate vegetarian dishes.
Even so, everyone did not relax in their mouths.
In those days, when it was cold, if you wanted to drink some wine to warm up your body, and there was no good appetizer to match, you would take your own soybeans and cook them as an appetizer.
A sip of wine, a mouthful of soybeans, although not as good as the current crayfish, duck neck, but the taste is also full, how much meat is incomparable, and because of this, even if the soybeans are now made in a variety of ways, but I still remember the salty aroma in the early years.
It is worth noting that although boiled soybeans in salted water are delicious, there are some contraindications when eating.
According to reports, although boiled soybeans are rich in protein, amino acids, calcium and potassium, eating it can supplement human nutrition, and the potassium can help lower blood pressure and prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but for some people who are allergic to salt water, it is easy to aggravate allergic reactions after eating, and symptoms such as skin itching and pimples appear.
Perhaps it is precisely because with the progress of the times, people's health awareness has improved, so boiled soybeans in salt water have gradually been "forgotten".

The last one, fried shrimp chips.
Speaking of this, I can't help but think of when I was a child, when I was happiest, the happiest thing I did was waiting for my father to come home from work, and my mother would cook some of my father's favorite snacks.
Appetizers
When the appetizers were ready, my father would talk to my mother and give us a few of his appetizers, and I was very satisfied with a few crispy shrimp chips.
In those days, I was also very happy for the Chinese New Year, just because there were fried shrimp chips to eat, fried shrimp chips were our New Year's repertoire, as long as I ate the first bite of shrimp chips, I would be like an addiction, I couldn't stop stuffing it into my mouth, and I didn't even have time to speak.
I remember that the fried shrimp chips were always served on a large plate, almost one plate, and my siblings ate a plate cleanly. But it looked like it was massive, but it didn't actually have anything, as if it was eating air. Even so, we can't resist our love for it.
However, I don't know when this kind of food is "hard to find", and it is difficult to buy it in many places, and only memories are left floating in my mind, which is really a pity.
Have you ever eaten fried shrimp chips?
These are all popular appetizers in the 80s and 90s, but now they are "neglected", do you like to eat these dishes? Do you know any of the appetizers of the older generation?
The contraindication of salted boiled soybeans in this article comes from (39 Health Network Physician Li) released on March 23, 2022, but in order to improve the readability of the article, the details may be polished, please read it sensibly, for reference only!
