Great capture - I'd sure buy one of those sweet potatoes!

Very authentic! I guess it is a tough job. Very well captured.

Just plain, but the fresh air and eating on the street makes them delicious. When I first came here they were 1.5 yuan each, a scary kind of inflation, because this is a poor man's supper. I'm not sure if sweet potato is a bad translation.

Is it a sweet potato or a yam? Does it come with anything? (I bake mine - yam - with maple syrup). I need to know what I'm getting for my 3 Yuan.
