How do people in your country usually eat a meal? In my country people love eating in groups, whether its between family or colleagues, Chinese people love getting together and sitting down to enjoy a good meal. Do you prefer to sit together as a family for a meal, or to eat separately? What are the benefits of doing that? To me, Id prefer to have lunch or dinner with my family as what we always do. You know, during the meal time were not just having food, but also chatting about and sharing the gossips happened recently. Sometimes even I have some puzzles; Id like to ask my parents during the dinner time. Which meal do you prefer, lunch or dinner? I prefer dinner. Dinner is always supper in China and we have more time to linger over conversations. I like a hearty meal with rice, vegetables and meat, dinner is the time where I can really enjoy my meal so its really important that I get a lot to eat or else I will have the urge to get some mid-night snacks which is something that I really want to avoid. Do you prefer to eat three full meals a day or do you prefer to eat many snacks throughout the day? Im definitely in favor of eating three full meals a day. I mean snacks might be tasty, but they can never provide you with needed nutrition. But sometimes if I have to miss one meal because of tight schedule or I havent had enough food in the meal, Id still grab some snacks, you know, just to maintain functional. |
