Why is the spittoon gone now?

Because of the improvement of people's living standards, personal quality and the cultivation of hygiene habits, spittoons have basically disappeared in China.

The living conditions in those days can't be compared with those now. At that time, we were very sanitary and didn't spit everywhere. We can only vomit in the spittoon. It's different now. People's living standards have improved. Specially produced paper towels, paper handkerchiefs, paper extractors, etc. It has become a necessity for every family and individual. It is unnecessary to vomit in a tissue and then throw it into a garbage can (tube).

In addition, spittoons are unsanitary and troublesome to wash, so they are put at home or in public places, so they are gradually cancelled.

Spiton became popular abroad:

For spittoons, many foreigners have never seen them, and many jokes have been made. Moreover, this thing has been exported abroad and entered the families of many foreigners. In the past, spittoons came in various shapes, including plastic and enamel. Generally speaking, enamel is exquisite, with various beautiful patterns on it. Many foreigners think this is a totem with auspicious significance.

Many foreigners can't put it down after seeing these spittoons. Some of them are actually used for drinking beer. Although they are clean, it may be funny to look at them because we know what they are used for.

Of course, they brought these exquisite spittoons back to China. Parents at home praised it after seeing it. They think these objects are too exquisite, much better than the fruit bowl vases at home, so some people use them to hold fruits for guests, and others use them to insert beautiful flowers.
