In winter, why do Northeasters go so crazy for food?

Perhaps many people have discovered this phenomenon. Many families in Northeast China always hoard vegetables crazily every winter, especially Chinese cabbage. This is mainly caused by living habits, because in the past, the northeast was always very cold and there were not many vegetables, so it was necessary to hoard more vegetables for the winter. This habit has continued until now. Many families in Northeast China will buy cabbages in whole cars in winter and then pickle them, and these cabbages can be eaten all winter.

Chinese cabbage has an unshakable position in the families of the Northeast, because a single Chinese cabbage can make many dishes, and it is mainly used for pickling. Many northeast families face several vats, which are full of pickled cabbages, and these cabbages can be eaten for a long time, and the northeast people especially like to use these pickled cabbages to make other dishes, such as stewed vermicelli with pork and sauerkraut, which is very familiar to everyone, and many other famous dishes in Northeast China. The pickled Chinese cabbage tastes quite good and can be stored for a long time, which is deeply loved by local residents.

In fact, most people who like to exist now are just old people, and many young people don't like to collect vegetables. After all, the living standard is getting better and better, the traffic level is much more developed than before, and the storage technology is better than before. Many vegetables can be bought directly. There is really no need to hoard them. Cabbages that have been left for a long time will gradually lose moisture and taste less good. It is better to eat and buy them now. However, many elderly people still follow their previous living habits. Every winter, they like to hoard some cabbages and leave them at home. It feels that this has become a feature of Northeast China.

It's just like every time we go to double 11, many people like to buy things, and even if things are not cheap, they want to join in the fun. It's the same reason. So now the phenomenon of hoarding vegetables in Northeast China is not so serious.
