Part one:FoodstuffInfluenced by the early immigrants—British Puritan and American Pioneer, Traditional American dishes are so simple, fast and practical as traditional Americans. The dishes, which must be stemmed from fresh materials, can keep its original taste and smell. The cooking processes are more than simple—neither bake, fry nor deep fry needs complicated work—and never particular about mild fire and slow stew or decorated by many nice stuff as Chinese cooking. American food structure mainly is a one-two-three-four system, just like a triangle. The primary one is beef, two is for chicken and fish, three is for pork, mutton and shrimps, four is for bread, potatoes, corn and vegetables. They like raw food, like salad which is the most typical and made of many raw vegetable pieces pouring some dressing on it.

Americans never eat animals’ livers, hearts, stomach, intestines and so on. Maybe we think they’re tasty, but Americans are afraid of them for the reason that the inner organs are too disgusting to eat. Another more, Americans always drop some animals’ heads away like fish, chicken and duck.In addition, they eat mushroom but do not like agarics. The saying “edible tree fungus” may built by Chinese, whose meaning is the fungus that is edible and grows on the decayed wood.

What’s more, the delicious food from land and sea for us, like bird’s nest, shark’s fin, abalone, bear’s palm, is unimaginable and unaccountable. They may ask: Do your Chinese even eat a bird’s nest? What else are there in shark’s fin except some collagen proteins? Why are you so cruel, killing a bear just for eating its feet?American prefer bread made of pure flour, while Chinese like eating rough grains, which is more healthy.

Chinese especially Cantonese are accustomed to drinking soup that is filled with vegetables, bones, sea food, herb plants est. while American soup is simple and tasteless.After meal, Chinese prefer eating fruit or drinking hot tea that can lower cholesterol, while Americans prefer desserts or coffee which increases blood fat and stimulates the heart. So Americans are more likely to have heart diseases than we are. Except for beer, red wine, tea and coffee, other drinks need to add ice cubes, for Americans hardly drink hot drinks. In our country, usually a cup of hot milk is needed, however, in America milk is put in the fridge and poured into a cup to drink directly. Cold drinks are easily accepted in summer but not in freezing winter. Generally dishes ought to keep hot, covered with a lid. Sometimes the plates are put in a large salver which is full of hot water and heated by a alcoholic stove.

So remember: while inviting Americans for meals, chicken or beef, vegetables, potatoes and fruit are good in addition with some des

serts and ice-cream.
