At this moment, let go of the things you don't want to care about when you're unhappy, and enjoy your happy time
An American netizen, he raised such a question on Quora, the largest Q&A website abroad: "What do the poor in China eat?" When he saw this question, he could already make up the arrogant and rude look of this American netizen, and as the question was raised, many foreign netizens also expressed their opinions:
"It is difficult to define the rich and the poor who eat", "What do the poor eat? meat and fish. Fruits", "Rice, noodles, vegetables, meat, stir-fries, etc.", "What food depends on where you eat".
Netizens from various countries answered differently, in fact, as this foreign said, "it is difficult to define the rich and poor who eat", in China it can be said that most people's eating habits are based on grains, so it is difficult to define the wealth of Chinese people from the aspect of eating.
Another foreign netizen directly shared his experience in China: "Except for Europe, China is my favorite food country, from the nineties to 2015, I have visited this country a limited number of times, I like both high-end restaurants and small restaurants, the food can be made with very basic and cheapest ingredients, but it is always delicious." ”
Another foreign netizen who has eaten Chinese food also said: "There is a dish called Anhui beef plate noodles, but it is not from Anhui, but Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, northern China, it only costs 2 dollars, and even poor people can afford it."
This also shows that the price of food in China is not very terrible, and eating itself is also a very ordinary thing, if China raises the price of food very high, then what should the people at the bottom do?
For every worker, the happiest thing every day is to be able to show off a big bowl of rice and be able to maintain physical strength to continue working, but often many workers are not willing to use their hard-earned money to eat out for dozens of yuan.
Many construction sites will have working meals, and a bowl of rice here may cost about ten yuan, but the meals eaten are not very bad, with cereals as the staple food, and the dishes are also meat and vegetarian combinations, which can fully meet the nutritional needs of the body.
Although it doesn't look very advanced, it can completely solve their "problem", which not only saves them a lot of money from the diet, but also allows them to have a full stomach.
When you see the diet of these workers, you may think that these meals are indeed a little ordinary, but in China, almost every household is inseparable from such a life, and cereals are the existence of daily ingestion for Chinese.
Whether you are a low-level person or a family with economic strength, rice, noodles, vegetables, meat, etc. are commonplace, even people who earn millions a year cannot do without these most basic ingredients, so if you use the aspect of food to define the rich and poor of Chinese, it is too superficial.
Looking at the price of goods in China, many foreign netizens may be unbelievable, in China, you may be able to eat a very "luxurious" breakfast for less than ten yuan, which often solves the dilemma that more people are reluctant to spend money to buy food.
A cup of soy milk, a fritter, an egg is often the custom of Chinese to eat breakfast, so that it is three or five pieces, although cheap does not prove that the ingredients are poor, these foods are almost all made by business, people can not only eat at ease but also spend less money to meet personal satiety problems.
It is no exaggeration to say that in some cities in China, prices are incredibly low, such as in the street stalls of Chongqing or in the popular Harbin before, a meal is about ten yuan, or even lower.
In fact, it is not, but in Chinese people are inseparable from these most basic foods, which once again shows that no matter what you eat, it is not information that can define your identity.
Compared with some Western countries, China has solved the dietary problem for people to the greatest extent, for example, in the United States, people are used to eating some fried or high-sweetness food, KFC, toast or vegetable salad, it does sound like a sense of luxury, but in fact most of these ingredients belong to fast food, eating for a long time will not only bring a burden to the human body but also a cheap commodity.
When it comes to the United States, people will think of the bustling streets of New York or Los Angeles with its historical charm, but in the United States, the poor really live a life without food, and the poor in the United States can be said to be unable to even afford to eat, although it sounds too exaggerated, but this is the case.
In the United States, the price of fast food is often lower than that of vegetables, and some poor people look like they can still have big waists because of these fast foods, because they don't have enough money to buy vegetables and can only buy the cheapest fast food, and long-term use has also brought irreversible damage to their bodies, which is why there is a saying in the United States that "the poorer you are, the fatter".
These fried foods in China, may be eaten once every ten days and half a month, but only as a situation to satisfy hunger, a small number of people will choose to use these ingredients as three meals a day, we all know that these are some "technology and hard work", no one will leave their health behind in order to satisfy hunger or cheapness.
Seeing this, I believe that discerning friends know what the real poor live like, even if there are still people who think that there are many poor people in China, I just want to say that China's policies are incomparable to many Western countries.
Even if there are people living at the bottom, according to China's prices and policies, they can still let every household eat fresh food, at least let people get rid of the situation of not having enough to eat.
When I saw this problem, it aroused the voices of many Chinese people: "I have worked on a construction site for eight years, and I am a standard poor person, but my monthly salary is more than 10,000 yuan, and I spend 12 yuan a day for a meal, and there are more than a dozen kinds of buffets, and the chicken, duck and fish are complete, delicious and inexpensive."
"Is it called poor by eating tree bark?", "I have eaten porridge and dried radish for half my life, regardless of whether I am rich or poor", "The poor in China eat vegetables and white flour and rice, and the rich eat wild vegetables and whole grains".
This is the life of the Chinese people, whether rich or poor people have formed a unified demand for food, what to eat does not represent your identity, and Chinese will not worry about eating at all, but entangled in what should be eaten every day, too much delicious people have difficulty in choosing, down-to-earth lifestyle is the characteristic of every Chinese.
