Thus, it was called "Tianjin Chestnuts". In fact, the chestnuts in Japan is different, according to the news. All chestnuts in Japan are called Tianjin Chestnuts. So far, no one knows why it is called Tianjin chestnuts. Do you know something about Tianjin Chestnuts?

It's not the EXACT Tianjin Chestnuts, but since it's sold in Tianjin it should be something similar, right?
