The benefits of eating pig's trotters?

Pig trotters contain a substance called collagen, which is cosmetic.

Eating pig's trotters for beauty is known to all those who are keen on beauty. As a result, eating pig's trotters gradually became popular. At present, Hangzhou slaughters more than 4,000 pigs every day. It's not enough to chop 16000 pig feet, but they need to be transported from other places every day.

The energy of Hangzhou people eating pig's trotters broke out this year. According to the statistics of the designated pig slaughtering office in Hangzhou, in the first quarter of this year, Hangzhou people ate 373,300 pigs, more than 80,000 heads more than the 290,700 pigs in the same period last year. During the May 1 Golden Week, 26,600 live pigs were slaughtered in urban areas, an increase of 2 1% over last year. These pig feet are all digested locally. Manager Zhou of Hangzhou United Meat Food Company said that the number of people eating pigs in Hangzhou is still increasing, and the supply of pig feet is also increasing accordingly, but this is not enough. Hangzhou has to transport more than 8,000 pig feet from other places every day to basically meet the supply.

The most digested trotters are restaurants. Many restaurants in Hangzhou have such signature dishes as "Golden Pig Hand", and Donghua Homecooked Restaurant on Xinhua Road can sell 200 pig hands every day. After the weather gets hot, pig's foot soup becomes more and more popular, and the demand for pig's feet will also increase.

Supported by strong demand, the price of pig's feet has been as steady as Mount Tai. At present, the retail price of pig's trotters without tendons is around 5 yuan per catty, while those with tendons are around 0.5 yuan, which is almost the same as last year.

Pig's head, pig's ears, pig's tail, pig's tongue (mouth strips) and other products are deeply loved by old Hangzhou people, and there are signs of a comeback recently. In restaurants such as Huangfaner and Zhuangyuange, sauce pig's ears and bean jelly with pig's tail are cold dishes with high click-through rate. "Don't drink in restaurants" can now sell hundreds of sauced pig ears and sauced pig tails a day, and can also receive many group purchase orders around the Spring Festival.
