ZHENGZHOU Nike Air VaporMax 97 Beige Blancas Baratas , March 15 (Xinhua) -- Forget about steamed buns and smelly tofu, and meet the hot new Chinese snack --
latiao! The spicy sticks that are enjoying their fifteen minutes of fame on the
global palate.


The cheap "delicacy" is made from gluten, the stuff that makes bread dough chewy. The stick of protein is spicy and is commonly sold at roadside stands.


The snack leapt to national and international fame recently when an overseas Chinese student posted a picture of his foreign classmates "enjoying" the snack
online.


The latiao fervor came one month after it caught the attention of a British film crew, and in February, the BBC aired a three-part documentary on Chinese
New Year celebrations in which the two presenters were seen roaming a typical
Chinese snack street, latiao in hand.


"Latiao is the most popular snack for under-25s in China," one of them said Nike Air Vapormax Off White Baratas , which seems a little far-fetched, to say the least.


A still from the documentary. also posted on WeChat, fueled a sense of online patriotism, with many shocked -- horrified, even -- that foreigners would go
nuts over the humble latiao, which costs as little as 0.5 yuan (8 U.S. cents).
#Latiaomostpopularsnack became one of the "most-trending" on microblog Sina
Weibo.


Of the top ten "Chinese snacks" on eBay, four items are latiao in different packagings Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit Baratas , with prices ranging from 10.33 dollars to 25 dollars. Searching "Chinese snacks" on amazon, latiao is the first
item to pop up, with each packet priced at 12.99 dollars.


Liu, a Chinese student studying in New York, said latiao was a favorite snack since he was a child, but after arriving in the United States, he had to buy it
on the Internet.


"As time goes by Nike Air VaporMax Blancas Baratas , more of my classmates are beginning to enjoy the snack," Liu said.


In China, the latiao industry generates an estimated value of 20 billion yuan, with 10 companies each producing latiao worth over 100 million yuan a
year. Production has expanded in recent years.


Min Quanlu, production manager of WL-Foods, a major latiao maker, said that the company used to package the snack by hand. until five years ago Nike Air VaporMax Rojas Baratas , when demand exploded. Now everything is automated.


"We make 600 million yuan's worth of latiao each year and employ about 2,000 workers," Min said. "About 20 percent of our products are sold in the domestic
market, and the rest goes overseas."


Not everyone is pleased to see latiao in the international spotlight, as the snack is often produced in unhygienic circumstances. A story about latiao being
made in dirty workshops in Henan generated headlines recently. Many have
complained about diarrhea and stomachache after eating the snack.


Xu Zichen, the Luhe food inspection official, said the local government has closed many unqualified latiao makers or upgraded their facilities to guarantee
food safety.


WASHINGTON Nike Air VaporMax Hombre Baratas , Oct. 12 (Xinhua) -- World Bank President Jim Yong Kim said on Thursday that China's effort to help 800 million
people out of poverty is historic.


"This is one of the great stories in human history, frankly," said Kim in a press conference marking the start of the International Monetary Fund and World
Bank annual meetings, when he was asked to comment on China's poverty reduction
efforts.


"With evolution of the Chinese economic system and its embrace of the global market, China has lifted over 800 million out of poverty," said the World Bank
chief.


With China as the major contributor to the world's poverty reduction progress, the ratio of people living in extreme poverty in the world has dropped
to less than 10 percent from 40 percent Nike Air VaporMax Negras Baratas , said Kim.

"The lessons we learn in China... the fact that 800 million people were lifted out of poverty, the lessons we learned by working in China are very
helpful to other middle income countries," said Kim.


According to Kim, the World Bank will continue to work with China in areas, such as healthcare system overhaul and ensuring social services access in
distant regions in China.


When asked about China's economic outlook, Kim said that China has been making progress in reducing reliance on investment and exports and focusing on
domestic consumption and services sector.


"We're encouraged that China has stayed on a course of this change from what they call rapid growth to more quality economic growth," said Kim.


At the same press conference Nike Air VaporMax Mujer Baratas , IMF chief Christine Lagarde said that the IMF upgraded China's economic outlook in 2017 and 2018 in view of its fiscal
stimulus.

Lagarde suggested China should continue the policies to rein in credit growth in order to prevent financial risks.
