Why do we always remember the wild fruits we ate when we were young?

It should be a memory of that painful experience. When I was a child, it was obvious that the fruit on the fruit stand was extravagant. Most of the wild fruits in the mountains are involved, and some of them have been cultivated into fruits for sale.

In fact, the taste of childhood fruits is not worse than that of today's fruits, and if we eat such wild fruits now, we will give up buying them in fruit shops. I have eaten a lot of wild fruits. Let me talk about some of their tastes.

Myrtaceae plants

In our hometown, it is called barnyard grass, and there is another saying that barnyard grass is picked casually on July 7, which means that barnyard grass is ripe around the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. At that time, it was summer vacation, and friends of all ages would go up the mountain together to pick barnyard grass, eat and pick it, and go home to relieve their greed for brothers and sisters.

This wild fruit has three colors from birth to maturity: green, red and purple-black. The purple-black fruit is ripe and very sweet. Although there are seeds, most of them are eaten together, so there will always be constipation the next morning, which is also a side effect.

Sanyuepao

This kind of fruit is a huge family. There are more than 200 species, most of which are spiny plants. There are two kinds of pickled fruits: sweet and sour, short plants appearing on the roadside, and thorns on small shrub trees. These fruits taste similar to strawberries, but sweeter than strawberries, probably because of the wild nature.

This kind of bubble has been growing from the transplanting season in March to around May Day, and different varieties are changing, providing snacks for children in the village, which can be regarded as an indispensable delicious wild fruit in childhood. Of course, this is also the beginning of sharing food with each other.

Tea bubble VS camellia Abel.

(tea bubble)

These two varieties are variations that grow on tea trees. Strictly speaking, they are not wild fruits, but a kind of mutant leaves. The taste of these two kinds of "wild fruits" is very similar to that of the lotus mist in the fruit shop now, but there are also differences. Tea bubble is sweeter than oil tea. ..

Abel, Camellia oleifera. )

Of course, because this time is around April, tea trees can only be picked when they are in bud, and they will be gone after the time. In addition, there is a caterpillar on the tea tree. If you don't pay attention, you will be wrapped all over, eating tea bubbles and Abel. , both painful and happy.

This kind of wild fruit is also called Dendrocalamus, which tastes similar to Mangosteen. However, there are only four petals in it, and there are no more. This kind of fruit ripens around winter every year. Compared with the above-mentioned wild fruits, it is the only fruit that needs to climb trees, and it can also be regarded as stealing, because climbing trees represents danger.

In fact, many of these wild fruits will grow in the Illicium verum forest, not because it likes Illicium verum forest, but because it looks very similar to Illicium verum when it was a child, so when it grows, it is mostly planted by elders. Because every year fertilization, the wild fruit growing in it is unexpectedly sweet, so I am not willing to cut it.

The taste is one reason why wild fruits are loved, mainly because they are childlike. The memory of childhood has been paid attention to by generations. That's why it reminds us.
