The market in Muang Sing was crowded with people selling vegetables, fruits, and many other food items. There was even a person selling bamboo shoots. The bamboo shoots were placed haphazardly on the ground and surrounded by women. There were also women dressed in ethnic costumes. They must have come from a nearby village to buy them. All the women were picking up the products and examining them intently.

Bamboo shoots seem to be a popular food here. Or maybe they are just in season. In any case, bamboo shoots might be on the menu for tonight. The bamboo shoots in Laos seemed to be longer and narrower than those in Japan.
