As the old saying goes: "Fat monk thin Taoist"!
This can't help but make people wonder, the same is practice, why is the Taoist priest very thin, but the monk has a fat head and big ears, and is very fat?
Some people say that it is because the Taoist priests like to Xi martial arts and exercise a lot, but they forget that Shaolin's stick method is also very famous, and many monks also love Xi martial arts.
Some people say that Taoist priests can move freely, in addition to practicing in the Taoist hall, they can also go down the mountain to enter the world to practice, while monks can generally only stay in the temple to practice, and cannot go down the mountain at will.
There is some truth in these statements, but they are not enough to explain why monks are generally fat? It wasn't until a few days ago, when I went to the temple for a fasting meal, that I finally understood the reason behind this, just by looking at their meals!
Like many people, I used to think that there was something good about fasting.
Isn't it just vegetarian? This thing has no oil and water at all, it is bland and tasteless, and it is more comfortable to eat a steamed bun, which is actually an old prejudice.
Nowadays, the materials are abundant, the ingredients are more diverse, and the diet of the monks is actually developing with the times, and the matter of eating fasting is also constantly evolving, and it has long been out of the concept of primitive light and tasteless.
Nowadays, many temples are in the form of a buffet, instead of the monotonous porridge and rice diet in the past, the era of one bowl of porridge per person has long passed, and now pay attention to the diversity of ingredients and tastes.
The buffet of the temple is very rich, there are no less than 10 kinds of staple food alone, including Western-style bread, exquisite bread is placed on the table, which makes people think that it is a buffet of a star hotel.
There are many types of bread, including classic staple bread, rye bread, whole wheat bread, and even burgers, which are filled with vegetables and some fillings, and taste just like a regular burger.
In addition to ordinary bread, there are also some Chinese desserts that are also loved by everyone.
Many people think that monks eat vegetarian food, can't eat meat, no oil and water, but forget that eating high-sugar food is just as easy to gain weight, if you eat sweet bread every day, even if you don't eat meat, it won't be long before you will gain weight.
In addition, the monks have limited exercise, generally only practice martial arts for a while in the morning Xi and most of the rest of the time they sit on the ground after eating and chant sutras, sedentary for a long time, and the food they eat is not easy to digest, and it is easy to get fat.
In addition to bread, there are a variety of traditional staple foods such as fried noodles, fried noodles, fried rice, white rice, corn, sweet potatoes, steamed buns, steamed buns, dumplings, pies, siu mai and so on.
As long as you can think of the staple food, you can see it here, and the staple food tastes very good, it is said that the chef used to be a five-star hotel, and later believed in Buddhism and became the head chef of the temple.
Nowadays, the food is abundant and the temple income is also very rich, and the three meals a day have long been separated from the original porridge-based meals to become more nutritious and diverse.
In addition to the staple food, there are also various soup dishes, such as tofu soup, black fungus yuba soup, radish soup, lotus root soup, winter melon soup, mushroom soup, and so on.
In addition to the main soup dishes, the main meal dishes are also hearty, such as fried food, fried pumpkin pie, fried vegetarian meatballs, fried French fries, fried sesame cakes, fried dumplings and other foods.
Although they can't eat meat, they can't resist the temptation of these fried delicacies, and they will eat too much if they are not careful, and these fried foods are rich in fat and fat, and they are naturally easy to get fat if they eat too much.
Even temples with good food will have barbecue food, such as common grilled gluten, grilled bean skin, grilled leeks, grilled eggplant, grilled corn, grilled enoki mushrooms, and so on.
Although Taoist priests can eat meat, they generally exercise a lot of money, and sometimes they have to go down the mountain to work, and the food is not so rich, and the amount of exercise is large, and they will be thinner over time.
