In China, college students line up outside primary schools for the cheap food stalls. They’re after the one-yuan fried skewers, two-yuan sausages, one-yuan turkey noodles, one-yuan fried enoki mushrooms, and other snacks.
To save money, many Chinese have started buying food scraps, because they are cheap and hearty. For example, a box of dark chocolate sold in supermarkets costs 20 yuan, but for the same price, you can buy a whole piece of heavy dark chocolate scrap online.
Those who want to eat Oreo cookies can search for Oreo crumbs in milk tea shops. Lovers of french fries, search for French fry scraps, all of which are cheap in bulk.
