The Western diet culture difference

Western diet due to geographical characteristics, influence of

climate factors such as environment, customs, appears in the ingredients, flavors, cooking methods, different degrees of differences in eating habits. It is because of these differences, diet has a strong regional character. Differences between Chinese and Western culture makes a difference of Chinese and Western food culture, and this difference from the West in ways of thinking and policy. Chinese focus on "Heaven", Westerners focus on "people-oriented".

Nutrition and delicious(營(yíng)養(yǎng)與美味)

Due to West philosophy thought of different, Westerners Yu diet heavy science, heavy science is emphasizes nutrition, so Western diet to nutrition for highest guidelines, eating like for a bio of machine added fuel, special emphasizes food of nutrition components, protein, and fat, and carbohydrates, and vitamin and the various inorganic elements of content is match expedient, calories of supply is right, and these nutrition components is can for eating who full absorption, has no other side effects. Knowledge of these problems are cooking, and how color,

fragrance and taste of the dishes, it is first requested. Sanhedrin Premier diet in Western countries--France, its food culture in many ways and we

approximate, but access to nutritional problems, will open the distance between the two sides.

Five flavors mixed with the operation aimed at the pursuit of

delicious cooking in China, during the processing of the hot frying and slow fire attack for a long time may cause destruction of the nutritional components of food. France is also the pursuit of delicious cooking, but at the same time not forgetting "nutrition" that premise, consistently delicious is that they do not care nutrition for the taking. Especially modern cooking trends occurred in the 1960 of the 20th century, with special emphasis on health, diet, to the pursuit of light oil, emphasized the use of fresh raw materials, stressed during the cooking process to

maintain original nutrition and taste, so vegetables are eaten raw. So that the Western diet nutrition is universal。

To be fair, when it comes to nutritional problems also

hit the biggest weakness of the Chinese food。

While we pay attention to diet, a healing cuisine, food, attention to diet to keeping fit, but we cook in search of delicious as the first

requirement, resulting in many nutrient losses in the process. Chinese chefs to participate in cooking contest in the world in recent years, others set out clearly a vegetable nutritional components on the side, we come up with this material. People ask questions, also flounder at some

moment, greatly eat the suffering which cannot be told to others!

We have always been primary purpose is as a pursuit of delicious eating. Folk saying "to eat for days, fresh taste first." When people praise the food and always says "smell good", but that is because we feel the color, flavor and sensory organs "eyes, nose and mouth" up and down the order. People in the "color, smell and taste", has always been the "" character "King".

Because of the extreme importance to the Chinese people, as well as the carrier of Chinese food just tastes, such as recognized luxury menu your cake and the sauce, shark fin, sea cucumber, hump, similar to its main constituents are cheap pork skin gelatin, itself is delicious, fresh soup to feed it, feed it, then use it to feed the people. Did this is not the flavor carriers to the core﹖

The Chinese emphasis on taste, is reflected in everyday conversation, such as family banquet, as soon as the main dish on the side table, the owner often say with modesty: "the meal well, not necessarily your taste. "He would never say:" does not have much nutritional value of vegetables, not enough calories�！�

Cook about nutrition in the West at the expense of taste, at least for

primary purpose is not to taste enjoy. They to cold drink table, iced of cold wine also to then plus ice, and tongue surface throughout of taste neural once iced, will greatly lost taste of sensitivity, gradually to cannot differentiation taste; that with blood of steak and white fish, and white meat, raw of vegetable, white water Cook beans, and cook potatoes, although has "taste" and does not into "road", all are reflect has Western people on taste of ignored. They refuse to use monosodium glutamate, is sufficient to prove that such people are not aware of, and are not "known view" guest of honour!

Based on the importance of nutrition, Westerners more raw

vegetables, not just raw tomatoes, cucumber, lettuce, is the cabbage, onion, broccoli (broccoli) are also eaten raw. So their "salad" is like a plate of rabbit feed, make it difficult for us to accept. Modern Chinese people also talk about nutrition and health, know vegetables upon heating, vitamins, is destroyed, so we all for Mong Kok hot fries. It also bring down the content of vitamins, but not completely lost, but taste was more than delicious rabbit feed. Nutrition and taste of Chinese modern

gastronomy to the pursuit of optimal balance under balance, of course, is also a "happy medium"。

Standard and optional(規(guī)范與隨意)

Westerners in the diet emphasize science and nutrition, has acted strictly in accordance with the standard of science of the whole process of cooking, steak tastes the same from New York to San Francisco, steak dishes are only a limited number of tomato, potato, lettuce. In addition, standardized amount of cooking requires sauce added accurate to the gram, cooking time is accurate to seconds. In addition in 1995 of the first issue of the digest was published overseas the eating in the Netherlands were also described in the article "Netherlands people's kitchens equipped with scales, liquid measuring cups, timers, scales, Spice rack size line up neatly on a standard bottle dozens of kinds of seasonings, like a chemical laboratory. ”

Chinese cooking and very different, not only the major cuisine has its own flavor and characteristics, is of the same cuisine with a menu, side dishes and a variety of spices used in the match, also according to the chef's personal characteristics are different. Is the same Chef a menu, despite its own generating method, but may vary according to different seasons, different, eat different identity, to be adjusted (such as rich in winter, light in the summer, the wedding to be colorful, funeral banquet taboos red Qiong Han to kill oil-greedy should be concentrated and thick sauce, gormandizer dine together should be fresh and unique). Also Cook your own tele mood changes, some kind of impromptu playing. Therefore, Chinese cooking is not only not emphasizing the second and g

Case :No Help for Old People

My landlady ,an American lady,who was over 70 and we got along very well. Once when we were ascending the stairs together , I stretched out my hands to give her some help.

She said, “ I can do it. Thank you.” I thought she was just being polite, so Iescorted her to the top floor. Her face showed that she could do nothing about my over-kindness. Soon after, I saw her going up the stairs alone, I forgot my previous lesson and practiced “ Lei Feng” once again. Thistime, half-jokingly and half-seriously, she asked me, “Young man, do youthink I am old and useless? When I haveto move myself on a wheelchair, I?ll ask you for help.” I stood there, blushedand puzzled.

Analysis

American culture ,a kind of individualism culture, always emphasizes the independence between the members in a group.So it is also rarely to be seen that borrowing and lending money from the relatives and friends .Most parents require their children to move out when they have reached an adult age,and it is also the same reason that most children don't want to live with their parents after they grown up.Pocket money also needs to be earned by children themself, even if their parents have more than one child to raise,they still leave plenty of time for their own social circles, private life and so on.

The moral concept of Chinese is the "human relations (according to feudal ethics)", and "treat each other with all sincerity and share weal and woe", "solidarity" is the fundamental spirit of morality.This is mainly embodied in the Chinese society of moral life .In addition, China's society pay attention to that kind of interdependent relationship between people.For a long time, China has been emphasizing the thought of"harmony" and “grand unification”.

In western countries, due to the influence of the thought of "natural rights", they regard not infringing upon the rights of others as guidelines.As long as you don't infringe upon the interests of others, even if you run amok, it cannot be called moral loss. In this case ,there is no more moral things to restrain you.In addition, affected by the national popular extreme individualism, they attach great importance

to personal rights、 interests and freedom, and take the opportunity to show their own uniqueness as much as possible .

To complete the task independently should be highly appreciated.

As a kind of collectivist culture, Chinese culture emphasizes the interdependence with each member in groups.Helping each other is appreciated by Chinese culture.This culture takes a harmony for the primary purpose (refer to the importance of the concept of Yin and Yang to reconcile for thousands of years in China.)Parents to the child's commitment is understandable.(refer to the college entrance examination immigration) .

This culture highly emphasize the importance of social skills.

In addition, the United States is oriented by the culture in the future, the representative of the future is the young man, so this kind of cultural background is often sensitive to the word "old". People who have such cultural education care about the future rather than focus on history .China is oriented by the culture in the past, representative of the past is the old people."Old" in China does not belong to sensitive word, old even represents “knowledge, wisdom, and authority." For example, “teacher” is the embodiment of the values.

This is the reason why it is not polite to take the initiative to help others just because they look older in the United States.Taking the initiative to help means " useless old"when the other don’t have obvious tendency in need of help .That is so-called“ imposing yourself on others .In China, it is immoral for young people not to help the elder.

Solution

In order to avoid this kind of situation effectively , in the process of cross-cultural communication, we are supposed to continually learn and accumulate different customs as possible as we can for deeper understanding of other countries .But ,at the same time ,we should pay attention to the sensitivity of the cultural differences.In spite of this, we still need to promote to keep pace with the times, this is because with the advent of the era of the Internet and the global village,

national culture appeared some degree of integration, this needs us to keep pace with the times in the knowledge of foreign culture and concepts .In a comprehensive view, it is easy to understand with each other and do as the Romans do.Seeking common culture in the cross-cultural communication is good at looking for interoperability, and establishing a mutual complementary and harmonious relationship.Reserve difference is admitted that understand cultural differences, unbiased understanding of alien culture and identity.

America

---difference in culture of food

Abstract

"food is the heaven to the human". Since human beings appeared on the earth millions years ago, we have had food everyday to satisfy the need of energy. Because of the influence of religion, climate, and region, different countries have different dietary cultures.

China, which has a history longer than five thousand years, is one of the biggest countries in the world, and the United States is the super country that has a great influence to the whole world. We study these differences and then find out the points that can be digested, in order to facilitate the communication about cultures between China and the United States. By the analysis of the differences between Chinese and American dietary cultures, we can comprehend the respective cultural traditions of China and the west and we can also improve and create the new culture of China. In my paper, I would

like to discuss the difference of food between the two countries.

Introduction

Because of the long distance, the isolation of hundreds of years makes the United States and China be too much different in their cultures. Although every country and society must evolve by food, food culture is not the same and the positions of food in different cultures are also diverse. China has been evolving more than five thousand years. It is the country with a large population, so it is an large agricultural country and has plenty of food resources to feed its people. So, in China, food has always being put at the highest position of the country. Differently, the United States was born and bred by polity and economy. It enjoys a excellent reputation of the high level of its polity and economy. The Americans did not pay their whole attention to food. In the culture of America, food is just a small part of people’s daily life. The different degrees that people focus on food lead to different food cultures.

Receiving the influence of respective cultural tradition, the Chinese and western dietary culture has had different

characteristics. The differences in concepts, patterns, attribution and nature reflect the different dietary cultures in the different state characteristics; such characteristics eiched the research value of food culture. Studying these cultural differences, we can find out a joint to enhance the communication between China and America . It may be a great help to the communication of the Chinese and western cultures.

Body

1. diet idea

1.1 American diet idea

Western people usually pay attention to the calories、vitamins、proteins and so on when they enjoy their meal. In their opinion, one should choose his food only according to his need as an independent individual and the balanced requirement of all kinds of nutrients for each part of his body. Comparing with the Chinese diet, western diet tastes stereotyped, as simple as chewing the candle, but the sense tells them: We must eat them all because of the nutrition.

1.2 Chinese diet idea

When the western people pay more attention to the balance of nutrition, What Chinese people care about is the

deliciousness of food . Chinese often use these words such as color 、smell 、flavor and shape to describe the food. In China, Chinese people regard meal as a kind of art of their life. The quality and the quantity of food represent the social status of a family, so many people use colorful and tasty food to show off when they have a party.

2. diet patterns

2.1 diet pattern in China

In China, a celebration, no matter what, there will be only one form, as sitting together, sharing one feast. Banquet uses round table, which has created a unity of form, which is courtesy, comity atmosphere. Dishes are in the center of the table. They are the objects for people to appreciate and taste, and they are also an intermediate of communication. People drink together and share the vegetables, which reflect the mutual respect among them. It can also show the virtues of comity and harmony. Although in the healthy respect, this approach has several deficiencies, it is our national "happy" mentality. It reflects the classical Chinese philosophy called harmony and it is helpful for Chinese people to facilitate the

collective emotional exchanges.

2.2 Diet pattern in America

The more obvious difference between Chinese and American dietary patterns is buffet dinner which is popular in America. This method is to display all food, and everybody picks not fixed in his or her places to eat. They walk freely. This approach can provide the emotional interaction between individuals; they never need to put every word on the table. This also shows a western personality and self-respect. However, all the eating without jamming lacks the real affective tone like the Chinese people. Some people want to put the buffet in the Chinese food, but I think it is not feasible. The Chinese people drink and eat around the table to show harmony and unity, but the buffet has broken such pattern. It raises the personal independence and self-mentioned at the first place. This is the opposite of the scale of the great unity of all Chinese traditional culture.

3. Diet Attribution

American diet tends to be scientific and rational, but the Chinese diet tends to be art and sentimental. During the underdeveloped era of diet, these two trends have only one aim
