在中华饮食的浩瀚海洋中，山西凭借老陈醋就可以独步天下。食在山西，那你基本上就离不开醋了。
In the vast ocean of Chinese cuisine, Shanxi stands out for its aged vinegar. When dining in Shanxi, vinegar is indispensable.
江湖有着“有醋可吃糠，无醋肉不香”的流传。山西老陈醋绵、酸、香、醇、鲜，饭前来一口开胃，吃饭来一口调味，饭后来一口解腻促消化，那么一个山西人一年吃掉15斤左右的醋也就不足为奇了。
There's a saying that "with vinegar, even chaff tastes good; without it, meat loses its flavor". Shanxi aged vinegar is mellow, sour, fragrant, pure, and fresh. A sip before meals whets the appetite, during meals enhances flavor, and after meals aids digestion. It’s no surprise that a Shanxi resident consumes about 15 pounds of vinegar annually.
醋在山西人的热爱下，学会了七十二变，于是陈醋元宵、陈醋冰淇凌、陈醋油条、老醋月饼等层出不穷，并凭实力奠定了自己“天下第一醋”的地位。
Vinegar, cherished by the people of Shanxi, has learned to transform into various forms, including aged vinegar glutinous rice balls, aged vinegar ice cream, aged vinegar dough sticks, and aged vinegar moon cakes, solidifying its status as "the best vinegar in the world".
