In this era of material shortage, radish and cabbage once became the main course on the table of ordinary people, replacing food. Every household is pickling pickles, and it seems that only on holidays will jiaozi be "almost unlimited". Occasionally, important guests are arranged to kill chickens and ducks for entertainment. In ordinary families, women still don't eat with their guests. Especially in small and medium-sized cities, there are only elders and men at home at the dinner table.

Before the 1950 s, the standard of health was "only asking not to get sick" Twenty years later, this standard seems to have not changed-a very important reason is that there are not so many diabetics in this era, and the sweetest baked sweet potatoes and popcorn are only occasionally enjoyed by children. The symbols of this era are very similar: push open different doors, the dishes on each table are similar, the furniture in each room is similar, people's clothes are similar, and their desire for life is similar.

1980s: From Food and Clothing to Well-off Society

In this era, China people, who are moving from food and clothing to a well-off society, are gradually showing an unprecedented abundance at the dinner table. In the past, the limited supply of Chinese cabbage has given way to fungus, loofah, tomatoes, mushrooms and peas. Especially in the middle and late period, the vegetable baskets of urban residents can be filled with all kinds of fruits and vegetables all year round.

When the initial supply of grain, oil and non-staple food was opened and all the tickets were expelled from the historical stage, it heralded the arrival of a new diet era: braised pork, which was only served on holidays, has gradually begun to increase. Salmon and perch, unheard of before, have also become delicacies on people's tables. Everyone has an obvious feeling that the living standard is changing from food and clothing to a well-off society. Even so, milk that can obviously improve physical fitness is still unpopular in this era. Until the mid-term, the whole country implemented the vegetable basket project, including poultry, eggs, milk, fruits and vegetables. After nearly ten years of hard work, the shortage of non-staple food supply has been completely solved.

In the late 1980s, coarse grain food gradually faded out of the people's dining table, and flour and rice became the protagonists on the dining table, while coarse grains became the supporting roles. Some coarse grains have been eliminated, at the same time, game and seafood have gradually begun to appear on people's dining tables, and various snakes, mice, giant salamanders, pangolins and civets have come out one after another. At that time, it was not forbidden to eat these delicacies, so people liked to eat those delicious braised delicacies. From these dishes, people can vaguely see that the dawn has come.

1990s: The arrival of gluttony era.

From the early days of this era, the rich in China can even eat 100 billion yuan a year at the dinner table, and the types and grades of dishes have begun to enter the peak of history. Abalone is the most eye-catching on the dining table in this era. Since ancient times, this dish has been a symbol of noble life. In various dynasties, eating abalone was often a happy enjoyment that only the rich and nobles, emperors and generals could have. Although its nutrients are not the most complete, its psychological satisfaction is extraordinary. In this era of "pursuing psychological satisfaction", a gourmet pointed out the extent to which abalone was warmly welcomed in Chinese mainland: "There is a certain distance between food and nutrition. At the dinner table, the most important thing is taste rather than nutrition. Eggs have nutritional value, but they cannot replace people's feelings about food. There is also a cultural pursuit. "

The coarse grains that have disappeared are favored by diners, and once again return to the table, becoming the new favorite of China people. At the same time, China people put milk on the ordinary dining table from the position of special nutrition, so china dairy began to make great strides and entered a period of extraordinary development.

With the prosperity of life, Chinese food has been difficult to satisfy people's appetite. Russian cuisine, French cuisine, Italian pizza, Japanese cuisine, Korean barbecue, American McDonald's, etc. Entering China in succession, China people can eat all over the world without going abroad. No matter where you go in this era, restaurants and bars of various grades and flavors can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys. The result is that the number of patients with cardiovascular diseases, tumors, diabetes and obesity continues to rise due to bad eating habits, so people begin to lose weight on a large scale.

2 1 century: eating and choosing

Spicy crayfish, spicy crab and boiled fish are the table culture of this era. However, at the beginning of this century, a sudden SARS epidemic and endless "shady" exposure killed many urbanites. People began to echo the theme of health, and fruits and vegetables returning to nature were re-valued. According to the survey, more than half of urban residents now include fruit in their daily health necessities. A large number of merchants launched a variety of natural green series foods in time for the market, on the grounds of freshness and health, and of course, the most important thing is that the calorie content is very low.

The development of milk has reached its peak, including pure milk, skim milk and calcium milk. In the past, people liked to buy refrigerators with large freezers to store chicken, duck and fish, but now they begin to pay attention to eating nutritious fresh food. Fresh vegetables, fresh vegetables, chickens and ducks to be slaughtered, fish to be alive. Young cucumbers with dewdrops, fresh lychees flown in by air, shrimps still alive on the table, and fresh peaches with green leaves, people in the market pay more and more attention to fresh goods rather than prices. What foods are nutritious, what foods can prevent aging, and how to match them to maintain the body's acid-base balance have become hot topics-China people's health concept has stepped onto a brand-new stage soberly and timely at the beginning of the 2/kloc-0 century. But from a scientific point of view, it seems that it is still not enough.
