Southerners and northerners do have different ways to buy food, but one ton is not that different. This statement is a bit exaggerated. This cute and funny shopping phenomenon has a lot to do with the climate difference between north and south.

1. The south is hot and humid, vegetables are easy to deteriorate, the south is cold in winter, and food is stored for a long time. Buying food in the northern vegetable market is generally measured by a bundle, a basket or even a bag. Especially in the winter in the northeast, it is common to hoard a variety of vegetables in cars with hundreds of pounds, which shocked a group of friends in the south. What's more interesting is that when many northerners go to the south to buy food and haven't bought food in Rome, some vendors in the south can't help but ask if your family runs a restaurant.

Because in the south, people usually buy food according to the amount of a meal or a day, such as a carrot, a small piece of meat, several onions, several eggs and so on. And sometimes vendors will provide a very intimate service to cut vegetables, which makes northerners look incredible. Speaking of this, kindly remind friends in the south that if you go to the northern vegetable market to buy food in this way, you will probably be rejected on the spot, but the advantage is that maybe an onion or an egg you bought will be given away for free.

This difference between north and south is by no means the reason why some southerners are stingy and northerners are too wasteful. It is mainly caused by the difference of climatic conditions. The temperature in the south is high and humid all the year round. If you hoard food for several days at once, more than half of the food will go bad before you have time to eat it. So they are used to buying only a small amount of food at a time, on the one hand, to prevent waste, on the other hand, for health. When the climate in the north is cold and dry, the food is not easy to deteriorate, and I don't want to buy food every day, so I choose to hoard food.

In addition to the different ways of buying food, the diet is also very different. Secondly, when paying for food, the north and the south are also slightly different. For example, the North will take the lead and only charge 20 yuan 20.3 yuan, while the Southerners will not, and will seriously ask for your 70 cents back. On the other hand, there are differences in diet between the north and the south, such as eating jiaozi in the north, glutinous rice balls in the south, corn in the north and whole grains in the south.

The phrase "southern rice is north" is often heard, and it is also true. Due to regional and climatic differences, there are many kinds of wheat in the north and many kinds of rice in the south. Excluding those with strong adaptability, northerners going to the south or southerners going to the north will be somewhat uncomfortable at first. Of course, these doubts will disappear after you really understand the food in various regions, because food has no boundaries.
