Chinese And American Eating Habits Are Separated By A Pacific Ocean.

In fact, some parts of Shanghai are very similar to those of Wall Street and Greenwich Village in New York.

However, the difference between eating habits is evident in the instant of entering the restaurant.

Westerners, especially Americans, have never seen such a battle in restaurants, just looking at pets in pet shops in their own countries.

Therefore, when we learn that these animals will eventually be eaten into their mouths, they are very uncomfortable.

In China, restaurants display these animals in order to ensure the freshness of their food, but in western countries, only after they taste the dishes will they know whether the dish is fresh or not.

In western countries, unless we are at home, we do not share things with others, and it is not social etiquette to feed other people's dishes at a restaurant table.

We only order dishes that we like and put them in front of us.

Chinese tableware is also a headache for westerners. When Chinese people use chopsticks to pick up food flexibly, we often fail.

All the dishes on the table, whether they are meat dishes or vegetarian dishes, make us quite surprised.

You know, we never expected them to appear on the table with animal prototypes.

Western chefs remove bones from cooking and select the most appropriate or best portions to eat.

Later, it was decorated with various condiments, spices and vegetables to make dishes look like works of art.

In China, when we order a chicken, we get a whole chicken with a head and feet. The head of the chicken is cut down and the mouth is big. It seems to be greeting the guests sitting in the hedge.

Chinese chefs are good at dedicate the whole chicken to their guests.

And we had to remove the chicken bones ourselves.

Chicken feet are said to be a delicacy in southern China, but we have never eaten them. The chicken feet I have seen are still on live chickens.

And now they are on the plate in front of me.

The same is true in the West. There are also many Chinese restaurants in the United States.

The distance between eastern and Western cultures is now only 13 hours' journey from New York to Beijing, or even at the moment of clicking the mouse.
