What are China people's favorite foods that are recognized as unpalatable abroad?
1. Stinky tofu.

Stinky tofu is a typical representative of "smelling stinky and eating fragrant" in many people's eyes. It is said to be similar to durian. In the eyes of a few people, durian is much scarier than stinky tofu. After the stinky tofu is deeply fried, it is more or less certain that the bacteria have been cleaned up.

Although a few people don't like stinky tofu, it's true that China people love stinky tofu. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many stinky tofu shops called "Changsha stinky tofu" in the streets.

Foreigners don't like to eat stinky tofu because of its taste. They get sick when they smell it, like smelling it in a trash can, and they can't help vomiting when they eat it in their mouths. But many places abroad will have the same food as stinky tofu, such as cheese, which looks good. Eating it in your mouth is like eating a big piece of oil, which is greasy and disgusting.

2. leeks.

Most things stuffed with leeks are delicious to China people, such as jiaozi stuffed with leeks, leek boxes, steamed buns stuffed with leek vermicelli and so on.

Although it is very popular with Chinese people, foreigners think leeks are grass. Therefore, they are super disgusted with eating leeks and think that eating leeks is eating grass. Foreigners have no idea that people can eat such fragrant grass. In fact, for most vegetarian dishes, they are domesticated from grass and have not been accepted by people until today.

3. preserved eggs.

Preserved eggs need to be preserved with lime and other materials in the production process, so they have a strange taste, but for a large part of China people, preserved eggs are a good thing. Until foreigners see that an egg has pigment and tastes strange. It is really interesting to say that preserved eggs are made of plastic.

It is certain that there are differences between Chinese and foreign food cultures. After all, all cultures are different.
