　　Cold skewers

　　　Hot skewers are like mini hot pots—the most distinctive way of eating in Sichuan. Cold skewers are similar to cold dishes and are also sold on skewers. Usually, the vegetarian ones cost one mao each and the meat ones five mao. Enjoying a bowl of ice jelly or white fungus along with a few cold skewers is the ultimate treat. Meat cold skewers include chicken gizzard, chicken feet, duck feet, chicken wing tips, etc.; vegetarian ones include lotus root slices, potatoes, mustard greens, seaweed, kelp, bamboo shoots, and dried mustard stems.
