The Cultural Misunderstanding about Americanized Chinese Food

Chinese, Cultural, Food, SUN

Recently, a private research institutes released a survey report on the Chinese meal. The report said some Chinese meal have too much oil and salt, and they are not good for health, For example, the "chicken were left", which is well-known,has too much salt content and calories.

Although the "Left cases of chicken" is sold in Chinese restaurants,but is not Chinese cuisine. It should not be called as Chinese Food, should be called the Americanized Chinese Food. In authentic Chinese restaurants, there is no "leftist cases chicken". it is specially customized to American friends .

behind diet of Americanized Chinese Food and authentic Chinese, it should be the cultural exports,and in a more extensive, more deep cultural connotations , but many foreigners' knowledge of Chinese culture has Falling-off. many foreigners have learned from the Chinese literary and artistic works. - but that is not true about China, for instance a few years ago. the films which expressed the destitution of China winned awards.but in fact it is not the truth about China.

Therefore, In the input and the introduction of culture, we need to clear the the boundaries between Americanized Chinese Food and authentic Chinese Food, The update and preservation of cultural also should be taken into account.
