During my stay in Tomb-Sweeping Day, some places had the habit of eating snails. At this time, the snail has not yet propagated, it is the fattest time and the most delicious season. There is a folk saying called "Snail and Goose Race". Snails can be eaten in a variety of ways, which can be chosen according to personal hobbies, and they are delicious.

Snails are not only delicious on the table, but also have the effect of preserving health and treating diseases. Chinese medicine believes that snails are cold, sweet and salty, and enter the spleen, stomach, liver and large intestine. Has the effects of clearing away heat, improving eyesight, promoting diuresis, relieving summer-heat, quenching thirst, detoxicating and sobering up, and can be used for treating heat-induced dysuria, jaundice, beriberi, edema, quenching thirst, hemorrhoid, hematochezia, conjunctival congestion and furuncle swelling and pain.

However, it should be noted that snails are cold, so people with spleen and stomach deficiency and diarrhea in loose stool, as well as people with colds, women during menstruation and postpartum can't eat snails. At the same time, snails like to live in a water environment rich in humus at the bottom of the water, which is easily polluted, so they must be cooked when eating to prevent infection by germs and parasites. Before cooking, cutting off the sharp shell of the snail can make the snail more delicious.
