Unique: Giant yam discovered in Nghe An.

(Baonghean.vn) - On the morning of December 11th, Mr. Vi Van Thuyen in Huoi Dua village, Thong Thu commune (Que Phong district), while working in his field, dug up a giant yam.

The yam that Mr. Vi Van Thuyen dug up weighed 16 kg.

The yam that Mr. Vi Van Thuyen dug up weighed a staggering 16kg. It is known that his family planted the yam garden more than a year ago. Not long ago, when they harvested other yams, they only weighed around 100g; it's unclear why this yam is "so enormous." This could be considered the largest yam ever found in Nghe An province.

After digging them up, Mr. Thuyen's family cut them open... and ate them right there.

When they dug it up and saw cracks, they thought it had no value, so the family cut it open and ate it right there.

Jicama, also known as water yam, has a sweet taste and a cooling nature. 80-90% of jicama is water, while the rest contains nutrients such as starch, glucose, vitamins, iron, calcium, and phosphorus—all essential for the body.

According to studies, water cassava has the effect of boosting the immune system, supporting cardiovascular health, being good for the digestive system, beautifying the skin, and being beneficial for pregnant mothers.
