Why do Shaanxi people eat two meals a day?

Because this is their living habit, they think that eating two meals is enough.

In fact, in ancient times, everyone ate two meals. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, only a few nobles ate three meals and only served two meals.

Later, in the Han Dynasty, some upper-class aristocrats began to popularize three meals, while ordinary people still had two meals. As we know, the capitals of Qin and Han dynasties were all in Shaanxi, so people at that time developed the habit of eating two meals until now.

Is it related to poverty that they eat two meals? This has nothing to do with it. It's just a habit. Habit becomes nature.

We think three meals a day is natural, but they think two meals a day is right. Maybe a place that eats four meals a day will laugh at us.

So there is no need to be surprised or discriminated, thinking that people are poor and can't afford to eat. This is just a living habit.

Our country is very big, with a large population, and dialects and living habits vary from place to place, so we should respect these cultures or folk customs instead of watching jokes.

No matter how the other person's living habits are, as long as they are positive and harmless to others, we should treat them with respect.

Diet is a kind of culture, and China cuisine is world-renowned. It is an indisputable fact that China's food is delicious and foreigners love it. China's food culture has a long history. For thousands of years, people have formed eight cuisines in China through continuous summarization, namely Shandong cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Guangdong cuisine, Fujian cuisine, Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine, Hunan cuisine and Anhui cuisine.

The origin of Shandong cuisine can be traced back to the last years of Shang Dynasty. Representative dishes created by King Taigong (alias Jiang Taigong and Jiang Ziya), such as braised chicken of King Taigong, stewed chicken offal in Qi Huangong period and shredded chicken soup in Xinman period, all originated in Rizhao city today. Shandong cuisine was formerly medicated diet (dietotherapy).

After the Song Dynasty, Shandong cuisine became the representative of "Northern Cuisine". During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Shandong cuisine became the main body of the imperial palace, which had a great influence on the northeast of Beijing and Tianjin, and later evolved from local dishes in Jinan and Jiaodong.

It is famous for its fragrance, tenderness and pure taste. It pays great attention to the preparation of clear soup and milk soup. Clear soup is clear and fresh, and milk soup is white and mellow. The main representative dishes are Soviet-made meat, Soviet-made elbow, chrysanthemum chicken soup and shredded chicken stewed with chrysanthemum.
