One question people always have about China is “What is Chinese food really<\/em><\/strong> like?” Many are well aware that the kind of Chinese food that is available in their country isn’t quite like the real thing. There’s also that old saying that “Chinese people eat everything with four legs except the table.” So, what do people in China actually eat? We take a closer look at the 3 meals in China in this post. Follow the links for more detailed descriptions of each meal along with some common dishes.<\/p>\n

Probably my favorite Chinese breakfast – \u714e\u997c.<\/p><\/div>\n

How does China like to start their morning? Breakfast<\/a> in China is generally a small and simple meal, especially in the big cities where people are busy rushing to work. Common breakfast foods include\u00a0steamed stuffed buns<\/strong> (\u5305\u5b50 \u2013 b\u0101o zi) and\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>porridge<\/strong> (\u7ca5<\/span> \u2013 zh\u014du). My personal favorite is a jian bing<\/strong><\/em> (\u714e\u997c<\/span> \u2013 ji\u0101n b\u01d0ng), which I suppose you could call a “Chinese crepe.” Check it out along with other breakfast favorites in this short video:<\/p>\n
