第1篇: 美国饮食文化英语作文

　　Good afternoon, everyone! Today I want to talk something about the food culture in china and western countries. And I hope you will enjoy it.

　　Generally speaking, we Chinese think food is very important to man. People often associate food with important holidays and the chance to meet guests. The Chinese food not only is very delicious and tasty but also very pleasing to your senses and many of dishes have very beautiful and interesting names. We Chinese have the food culture of our own which are quite different from the western counties. In the western countries, people pay more attention to the nutrition of food rather than the looks of it. What’s more, the cuisine and table manners are quite different from ours in a great extent. .

　　• Ok, now I will show you some differences between China and western countries.

　　• First, it’s about the special way to make greeting in china

　　• It is a very common practice we Chinese people say "Have you had your meal?" when they meet each other around the time before or after meals. Sometimes they even ask this question everywhere even in toilets. In fact, it is a kind of greeting to communicate with each other just like English tend to begin a communication with weather.

　　But foreigners cannot understand that because they think why you ask me this. They tend to think you want to invite them to dinner .However, Chinese think food is very important and essential to people so it shows some care and concern about you. That is why they ask others if they had food yet?

　　Ok, second, what I want to say is everything is eatable in China.

　　• It seems that we eat everything and everything can be eatable in Chinese food, whether it comes from land or from the sky or from the sea or whether it is wild or domestic. However, Foreigners cannot imagine we eat the food like snakes, dogs and even frogs. When we sell the meat from the animal and poultry, we normally sell it as a whole or cut it from the whole body. There is an American teacher didn't want to buy and eat pork when she first came to China because she saw the meat cut from a certain part of the pig.

　　• Ok, now, let’s talk something about the names of the dishes in China which very often puzzles foreigners a lot that we ask and talk so much when we order our food in the restaurant. One reason is we ask what the food or the dish is and try to clarify it because you sometimes never know what the food is just according the name of the food until it is put on your table in the restaurant just.

　　because sometimes the food is very simple but the name is very obscure(晦涩). For example one of the dishes is called "Ants Climbing the Trees." But the food is simple potato noodles and bits of meat in it, while most of western food has a simple and clear name and you know what it is when you hear the name. For instance, there is a traditional food call "fish and chips" in the UK. You see it is very obvious it is fried fish and potato chips. The reason for this atmosphere in China is on the one hand people want to tell you the way it cooks such as cook, and on the other hand they give it butiful good names so that you have a good imagination of it and have a good appetite.

　　• Finally ,usually ,there is to much food to eat at meals in China

　　This is because we Chinese think it very impolite if we don't cook the food enough for the guests so we normally cook more food than guests eat. If you finish your food at meal, the host and hostess usually add more and more food in your dish or bowl without asking you whether you want it or not so as to show they are polite to the guests. They will keep saying, "eat more" and in English we have the expression "help yourself". Americans never force you to eat more. If you stop eating, they tend to think you are full. So sometime foreigners feel very helpless when the host and hostess to put more food in their dishes and bowls and they can do nothing but eat more and more until they are completely full. So some foreigners learn to know they always leave some food in their bowls or dishes in order to avoid more food to be added when are invited to dinner in Chinese family. That is the differences in food culture between China and the West.

　　The American diet is very interesting. They eat almost everything with a fork, and it seems that holding a knife in the right hand for more than a few seconds is considered a violation of good table manners. If it is absolutely necessary to use a knife, people take the fork with their left hand, cut off a piece of meat or something else.

　　In the normal way, they put down the knife, move the fork to the right hand, and then deliver the food Mouth, it's obviously ridiculous (but it's considered good behavior). The system first has a few results. If it's not absolutely necessary, Americans don't use a knife, because obviously this makes things very complicated.

　　You'll see them trying to cut potatoes, fish, even bacon with their forks. Because there is only one tool in use, the food must be moved back and forth on the plate with a fork, and the last bite must be held in place by the thumb. This should not be done.

　　Third, a knife and two forks are usually used on the table. The outside fork is used for salad. Foreign tourists don't need to follow the American system and try to eat salad with a fork, but if you do use a knife, remember to keep it on the meat dish, even if you eat dessert (except ice cream), if possible, use the fork, and the spoon you see next to the dessert is used for coffee (but if you use it for dessert, no one will say anything).

　　中文翻译：

　　美国人的饮食很有趣他们几乎什么都用叉子吃，而且似乎右手持刀超过几秒钟被认为是违反良好的餐桌礼仪的制度，如果绝对有必要使用刀子，人们就用左手拿叉子，切掉一块肉或其他什么东西按照正常的方式，他们放下刀子，把叉子移到右手，然后才把食物送到嘴里，这显然是荒谬的(但这被认为是好的行为举止这个系统首先有几个结果，如果不是绝对需要用刀，美国人就不会用刀，因为很明显这一点这使事情变得非常复杂，你会看到他们试图用叉子切土豆，鱼，甚至培根之类的东西。因为只有一个工具在使用，食物必须用叉子在盘子里来回移动，最后一口必须用拇指来保持食物的位置不应该这样做第三，桌子上通常是用一把刀和两个叉子，外面的叉子是用来放沙拉的。外国游客不需要遵循美国的制度，尽量只用叉子吃沙拉，但是如果你真的用刀，记得把它留到肉菜上，即使吃甜点(冰淇淋除外)如果可能的话，用叉子，你在甜点旁边看到的勺子是用来放咖啡的(但是如果你用它做甜点，就没人会说什么了)。
