Chapter 963: Judges Tasting 2
The judges were chewing the cucumber, and at this moment their hearts were all "aba aba"...
Just, how did they evaluate cucumbers before?
That moisture... that taste...
It's over.
Everyone looked at each other, speechless.
After a while, it was the leading little old lady who asked: "Did you only plant thorn cucumbers? Thorn cucumbers can have such a taste; if you plant dry cucumbers, it might be even more prominent."
Thorn cucumbers are dark green in color, slender in shape, and light in weight. But dry cucumbers don't need to be trellised, are light green and slightly yellow in color, short and round in shape, and have a fresh and tender taste, closer to fruit cucumbers.
But she said this at this moment, her eyes staring at the exhibition stand, as if cucumbers were the same as strawberries, and she could taste them again if there were more varieties.
Song Tan shook her head: "The greenhouse was a bit late this year, planted in a rush, only this variety... Would you like to taste the tomatoes?"
She rarely praised: "Our family's tomatoes are also old varieties, thin-skinned, thick-fleshed, and sandy-textured, all picked only after they were mature."
Qiao Qiao said this chili pepper is very spicy, but according to their experience, those with thick flesh usually have slightly weaker spiciness—of course, this isn't absolute, it's just that chili peppers aren't like cilantro; some people don't like it but absolutely won't hate it, therefore... just try it?
"Don't you have any fruit? Our family has a new 'Snow Mountain Apple,' grown in cold regions, the taste is especially good."
"Which company is A7? Are there many things displayed? Why hasn't it been reviewed for so long?"
And Qiao Qiao, who had been chopping chili peppers for half a year, put on gloves and was completely unaffected. But the choking smell of raw chili peppers, those who hadn't been exposed to it really weren't quite accustomed to it.
And biting into it, the crisp and sweet taste and the burst of juice were followed by a slight spiciness, making people unable to help but want to eat another bite.
If it were summer or a heated room, and a layer of fine white sugar was sprinkled on top and left for a few hours...
Nothing else, Qiao Qiao was holding a small fruit knife and chopping chili peppers "ka ka ka"!
But clearly, the thick-skinned ones took advantage. For example, at this moment, everyone had to watch Song Tan hand the remaining half bowl of juice to the person who spoke first.
Clearly, it was an ordinary-looking old-fashioned sweet potato, with a big gap from the currently popular "smoke sweet potato" and "honey sweet potato," but after cutting it into chunks, clearly it wasn't just dug out, yet it was exceptionally crisp and sweet...
Everyone ate the tomatoes with aggrieved, unfinished, and expectant feelings. The media person also asked loudly: "Can I drink what's left in the bowl? I'm a bit thirsty."
This brought a complaint from the people around: "Are you being hygienic? At least cover it with a paper towel—ah ah ah achoo!"
"You stand here and don't move, I'll go to the front to explore."
"Give me a piece to taste..."
"Why is it still not dispersed in the front? Who isn't going to inquire? Why haven't they come back yet?"
The leading little old man looked at her with accusation: "So, why didn't you let us eat a whole one?" He was old, he didn't want an image, he could eat while carrying it, eating until his face was full of flowers!
"What kind of controversy can there be, scoring isn't discussed in front of us..."
Everyone:... Hateful ah ah ah!!!
Old Song, ah Old Song! You hid it from everyone, you did all the bad things!
The crispness of the radish and the crisp sweetness of the sweet potato were still in their mouths!
Once that was said, who could hold back! The tomatoes were cut into chunks and placed in a bowl. Could they not see the sandy texture? The dense granular feeling was about to come out!
Some relied on their agility, some relied on their height and size, anyway, they squeezed over in a swarm. Just entered the encirclement, suddenly smelled an exceptionally choking smell. Couldn't help but "achoo," and sneezed.
Up to now, every crop they ate had a taste that was even better than the mature fruit of the origin!
And the other party took it and didn't delay at all, raised their head and drank it in one gulp, and then even more shamelessly let out a hearty sigh.
However, it wasn't much better over there; everyone was covering their noses with paper towels, sneezing and shedding tears, and those who were sensitive were about to be unable to stand.
Sweet potatoes were the same.
And at this moment, the several exhibition areas in the front that had already started to tidy up the exhibition stands and wait for the public review in the afternoon were puzzled:
Song Tan also answered righteously: "You've been tasting all afternoon, I was afraid one whole one would take up too much stomach space."
"I've tidied up here, I'll go take a look too, and come back and tell you later."
Small tomato, radish chunks, sweet potato chunks... which one to eat first?
Everyone glared: Shameless! Do they think we aren't thirsty?
"The cilantro my family planted, this cilantro has good uprightness, and the taste is strong. A judge teacher directly abstained..."
And at this moment, many agricultural machinery workers wearing green vests also quietly surged toward this side while no one was there at noon.
Unknowingly, more and more people were gathered in front of the small exhibition stand in Area A7, so that the battle line was stretched into a circle, and even the surrounding agricultural areas started to have people standing.
Fortunately, the exhibition stands were far apart, and they had a clear boundary line on the agricultural machinery side. Everyone stepped outside the yellow line, and a sneeze wouldn't affect the exhibition stand three meters away.
Song Tan also thoughtfully handed over paper towels, seemingly regretful: "This one, if it wasn't cut, the juice would have flowed out..." It wasn't just flowing out, a bowl of tomato chunks, the bottom layer was all red, sour, and sweet juice.
Hiss!
Speaking of that, it was indeed impossible to refute.
"Sigh, I don't know what they planted? My family planted eggplants this year. You say eating them raw is so hard to eat! The judge teacher tasted them without even frowning... Later, when they ate the cooked ones, their expression didn't change much either."
The judges had already given up on squeezing their brains to think of comments at this moment, stretching their necks to look at the exhibition stand, as if a dragon was patrolling treasure—
"Sigh, I prefer the kind of cilantro that lies on the ground in my hometown; I think the taste is more authentic."
But... who can refuse a spicy lover!
"Abstaining doesn't matter, it's calculated by removing the highest and lowest scores, it doesn't affect the scoring."
"Oh yo yo! I see the media is very excited, is there any explosive point?"
This chili pepper was the favorite variety of the family this year. The spiciness was amazing, the aroma was rich, but the flesh was thick, so they continued to plant it this winter.
As everyone knows, the biggest hobby of the Chinese people is to join in the fun. This is engraved in their instincts. Seeing people gathered, they can't help but want to take a look.
"What do you know, they have been dealing with these melons, fruits, and vegetables all their lives. Whether the taste is good or not, they can know by tasting a raw one."
The judges didn't refuse either.
Don't dare to think how delicious the tomato juice must be!
"I don't know, it's noisy in the front, is there any controversy?"
Green radish was peeled and cut into chunks and placed in a bowl, looking crystal clear and watery, exceptionally refreshing in this warm exhibition hall.
"Take it! The company prepared several boxes! One for each person! There's still an exhibition in the front!" ===== CHAPTER 964 =====
