Pineapple is a sweet and sour fruit native to South American countries such as Brazil and Paraguay and was introduced to the Taiwanese island through mainland China from the Qing Dynasty. In addition, later there are some other varieties of pineapples that were introduced from Hawaii and Southeast Asia during the Japanese occupation of the island.

According to the famous pineapple researcher Kuan Ching-Shan up to now, Taiwan has developed and bred many varieties of pineapple that have both high yield and economic value like the Tainung variety, which has dominated many international markets. Here are some pineapple varieties that are popular in Taiwan. Pineapple yellow diamond Officially named Tainung 17, the golden diamond pineapple is the most grown and exported variety in Taiwan, with “the majority of products being used for both direct consumption and processing”. The factors contributing to the popularity of the yellow diamond pineapple varieties are its delicious quality, high sweetness, less acidity, thin fibers and no burning sensation when eaten directly, Kuan said. In addition, the very thin shell of the yellow diamond pineapple makes it easy to peel. Unlike most pineapple varieties grown in the summer, yellow diamond pineapples are planted in the spring, with an optimal production time from March to June. Pineapple honey curd Officially known as Tainung 13, pineapples are grown in winter, which is said to be very rare because tropical fruits normally require high temperatures to increase sweetness and pineapples are mainly grown in summer to reduce Less sour. Pineapple honey stands out with less pulp, so it is usually less labor intensive to grow and care. Pineapple milk Unlike most pineapples that are yellow in color, the milky pineapple is named Tainung 20 because its flesh has a unique milky white color. The milk pineapple variety is also different from most varieties in that it has smooth leaves and no thorns. The optimal production time of pineapple milk is after May and during the summer. Pineapple sugar apple According to Kuan, the Tainung 4 pineapple variety, also known as the sugar apple pineapple, was once called the “pineapple king export” of Taiwan. The reason it got its name is because the pulp inside of it, after peeling, can be eaten without cutting the eyes, just like eating an apple. However, this pineapple has many thorns on the leaves, so this may be the reason why it is no longer widely grown. Pineapple Cayenne smooth This pineapple variety was first introduced in Taiwan and became the most cultivated variety during Japan’s colonial period, mainly used in processed, canned foods. According to Mr. Kuan, this is a pineapple variety that does not originate from Taiwan. Pineapple fragrant Named Tainung 11, also known as pineapple fragrant because of its strong smell when ripe. With optimal yields from May to June, pineapple varieties do not have thorns, making it easier to grow than other varieties.

And with time changing, a lot of creative use has emerged. But subjectively, I believe that after taking over Hanoi in 1954, with the glorious battle of Dien Bien Phu.
I remember my mother telling me that in the old days, when my house was on Ma May, if I wanted to buy from a bearer, I had to call them to bring a load into the house, close the door, then choose and bargain, not allowed to squat right on the sidewalk in front of the door, but choose with the price. That’s why, before 1954, Hanoi did not have such a sidewalk economy.

In old Hanoi, sitting on the sidewalk, only coffee shops opened by the French. The old photos show that. But this is again a habit passed from the old country. Until now in Europe, coffee on the sidewalk was normal, not encroaching on but hired by a decent and licensed government. In Hanoi, Le Van Huu street is bordered on Lo Duc, a section of the sidewalk has an empty wall. Watches are hung up there to sell. The wall is slightly recoiled in comparison with other houses to create a small space of about 1 m and adding a small glass cabinet with wristwatches is a livelihood. And tea (tea) cups on the sidewalk. In front of hospital gates, this form was very popular. A corner of the wall, a three-level steps are the citadel, toad shops. Or on the corner of Ngo Thi Nham street, close to Mo market, there is a row of rolls. A few large baskets are displayed, small plastic chairs spread anywhere by the wall, and you can sit and enjoy a rustic gift. This gift must have been around for 30 years on that street corner. Just giving a few typical examples, but in Hanoi, the sidewalk economy is probably a characteristic feature of popular life. city”. Hanoi has a functional zoning plan for the four old inner city districts. A plan a bit slow compared to the history and development of a thousand-year-old civilized capital, but it is later than indecisive nagging. In this plan, it is expected that there will be some calculation for the sidewalk in its economic use function. In fact, the culture on the sidewalk is not a bad culture, it’s just how we manage it to improve civilization. Because planning cannot be separated from economy and society, it is organic entities together.
