In the past, people consumed a large amount of pickles
There is a saying in Ningbo: 'If you don't eat salty soup for three days, your bones will ache'
In the past, most people were mainly laborers, sweating a lot every day, and there were no air conditioners
At that time, it was necessary to supplement more salt, so pickles were eaten more
And there were also fewer processed foods containing 'hidden sodium' such as biscuits and bread
People's sources of sodium included visible 'salt' and pickles as condiments
About Eating
Now, pickles have gradually faded from people's daily diet, only occasionally adjusting their taste as a condiment
Sometimes when dining out or ordering takeout, or when flying, a small amount of pickles is attached
After all, the vitamin C in pickles has been 'completely wiped out', and its nutritional value is much lower than fresh vegetables
Long-term consumption of high-salt pickles is not good for health
