Great excitement in Liuzhou the last couple of days. Zhang Yufei, the Olympic swimmer who famously said after the last race of the Paris Olympics that she just wanted to eat Luosifen, paid a 'state visit' to Liuzhou. She has no family connection to the city, instead being from Jiangsu province, north of Shanghai.

 

She was feted by Liuzhou as the hero she is and presented with all sort of awards and gifts. In addition she visited some ethnic minority peoples and dressed up in their costumes to dance and play games with them.

 

She also got her Luosifen. Privately.

So, if you want to sample Luosifen at source all you need to do is say so on world-wide television. Oh! And it helps if you win eighteen gold medals, eight silver medals, and seventeen bronze medals by the time you're 26 years old. And hold the record for most Olympic medals for a Chinese athlete.

 

I've eaten my fair share of luosifen, but it has done nothing for my Olympic prowess.
