Different Food Culture between the East and the West
Just now, I have read an interesting article which discuss the different food culture between the East and the West. In the article, In the author 's opinion, East food is" hot", while the West food is "cold".He gave several examples to support his viewpoint.
Firstly, easterner like eating hot food.For example, on the morning, chinese people often eat hot porridge,clay oven rolls,fried bread stick,noodles,soybean milk and other http://www.mengheng.com”>chinese food. All of these are hot. On the otherhand, People in the west usually eat bread,milk,orange and coffen which is cold commonly.
Secondly, A Easterner like drink hot water whenever it is winter or summer.If you go to a Chinese home, they will give you a cup of tea, and the tea always is hot unless you demand for cold water.But in the west, People like drink cold water or beverage, they even can drink a bottle of cold water in winter, this is inconceivability in a eastener's eyes.
Thirdly,It is different altogether between Easterner and Occidental in dinner.We often see a round table in a chinese family，then, a whole family can sit togather to eat dinner.They like share all dishs with other families,round table is convenient for a family.On the other hand, In a occidental family, a square table is familiar.A family eatin each different dish.
