Sweetcorn For Sale In Yambol City Centre

There is nothing like the taste of freshly cooked locally produced sweetcorn. This is a sure sign of summer in full swing Yambol as the sellers are out in force. They are very popular and good to see children being bought some to eat as a snack rather than the fast food crap they are being forced to eat in other non Bulgarian food places. However, this freedom to sell simple good food on the streets might be stopped in the future as EU directives are being processed right now on health and safety. This make me mad to think they can do this yet let crap fast food through!
