In addition to the different sizes of bowls used in urban and rural areas, there are also differences between southern and northern China. Basically, people who go further south eat smaller bowls.

Northeast fried dumpling, a whole is a cauldron.

Another plate of Xinjiang saute spicy chicken

Laiwan Shaanxi spicy noodles

Let's look at the diet in the south:

Shanghai's exquisite dishes

Crystal shrimp dumplings and steamed buns in Guangdong ......

If northerners eat these things from the south, they will definitely say, "Boss, let's start with 10 steamed buns".

I was in the countryside when I was a child. Anyone in the village who has a relative in the county will feel brighter on his face.

Our neighbor's second son (Xiaofeng) is a city man in the eyes of our rural people. I worked in the county more than ten years ago, as if I were a deputy section chief of the county education bureau.

The children in the village want to go to school in the city without borrowing fees, all through his relationship.

He also helped many children in the village when he was in office. He is a man of prestige.

Someone in the village was jealous and joked, "Xiaofeng, I heard from your aunt that I went to the county last time and had a meal at your house." Your bowl is too small for me to eat two bowls of rice. Later, I was embarrassed to eat it. You see, in our country, a big bowl is enough. Now that you are a city dweller, your food is different from that of our rural people. Can you eat enough in one day? " Ha ha ha ha laugh.

Not all of them, of course. It has something to do with the food eaten in every place.

In most places in the north, pasta is eaten, and in the south, vegetables are basically accompanied by rice. You can eat less rice, eat more vegetables and have a balanced nutrition.

Therefore, food determines eating habits.

Anyway, no matter how big or small the bowl is, it is a good bowl to be full!

This can be said to be a tradition.

In the former countryside, the first impression was poverty.

Rural people just want to eat and live.

When I was a child, I had a plate at home to worship my ancestors and kowtow on holidays.

For a while, I drank at home with my classmates and served dishes in bowls.

When I was a child, I caught a large pot of carp loach in the pond, all of which were three or four sizes. They were washed and peeled clean, but no one wanted to cook them, and finally they all fell on the dunghill.

In high school for two years, six or seven of us went to the school cafeteria to cook in buckets, and then shared the rice.

Six or seven people, only one bowl, not a pair of chopsticks.

Eating can only be a bowl of drink in turn. You take a bite and I'll take a bite. You can only pinch something with your hands and put it in your mouth!

Rural people like to eat in big bowls. Why don't they like using small bowls? Mainly rural people eat a lot, do more physical activities, eat more, and eat less in small bowls. It takes a lot of bowls to eat, which is inconvenient to eat. As for the city people, there is no heavy physical activity, plus fried cooked food at noon, eat less, and a small bowl will do. Many years ago, there was a family in my family, which was very stingy and afraid that people would eat more. When eating, the rice bowl is not only small, but also half a bowl for others. Finally, people nicknamed him "chestnut half bowl" Nowadays, the bowls are almost big in both urban and rural areas. Now on the dining table, what is important is the color, fragrance and nutrition of the dishes.

Eat less or even not.

In fact, this is a habitual problem. At present, this is also the case in my hometown and countryside. Every time I go back, my parents use big bowls to fill their meals. I also asked them. My parents say it's very simple, you don't have to always fill the rice. For example, our parents were born in the fifties and sixties, and they experienced a large collective life and famine. It would be nice to have a full meal then. So try to eat as much as possible when you have food, and gradually form a habit.

Another reason is that many vegetables in rural areas are home-grown, healthy and nutritious. They are delicious and taste better, so they have a good appetite. In the past, eating in the city was just a small bowl, and when I went home, I could eat a big bowl.

Probably because of the smell of home.

People in cities generally work more easily. Many of them work in offices, so their appetite is not very good. Naturally, there is not so much appetite. It is more than enough to use a big bowl, so people in the city usually use a small bowl.

In rural areas, people have to eat several bowls for every bowl of vegetable rice, because they have a lot of manual work to do. Because they have a big appetite, they must use a big bowl.

My father often eats from the biggest bowl in the family. He ate a lot at work, and then he felt too lazy to add rice to the small bowl. In addition, rural people prefer to eat out. When they meet other villagers who eat, they have to queue up for a long time, so they should pack enough food to avoid adding meals halfway, which is very troublesome.

I don't think the bowl at home is too big, but compared with a small bowl of soup at school, my bowl is still quite big. As for why it is big, let me explain.

First, I think everyone in the family can eat, so the bowl should be bigger, so there will be more cooking and it will be more convenient to wash dishes and the like.

Second, there are many people in the family, and everyone eats together. Naturally, they have to use a pot. Cooking less, still not enough to eat.

The rest may be that a big bowl is cheaper than several small bowls. Anyway, my family is more economical.

The food at home, even the plates used, are full.

This is a small proofreading plate.

My parents eat in small bowls. I am a miracle. I like to use IKEA's biggest bowl or IKEA's stainless steel serving basin. Medium, of course, because I don't like picking vegetables while eating. I don't think it's hygienic. I may be a neat freak. I like to put all kinds of dishes on the rice with a spoon or chopsticks at once, and then eat them silently. This small bowl won't fit in. A large part of the reason is that rural people have worked hard and done a lot of work. This appetite is bound to be bigger than that of the city. If you use a small bowl, you rarely fill the rice back and forth, and you can fill it into a big bowl at one time. Rural people are all coolies, so they don't have to lose weight. People in the city don't work hard, eat too much a day and lose weight!

I have done a lot of work in the past. I can eat half a pot of rice in one meal. Now I live very well, the climate and environment are very comfortable, and there is no need to work hard. So where to eat a big bowl of rice? People who do farm work here can still eat three or four bowls of rice at a meal. Eating a lot can only mean spending more!

A big bowl and a small bowl are just a habit. Personally, I like that you can eat in a big bowl if you feel that you are not full in a small bowl. If most people can't finish eating in a big bowl, it's just right to eat in a small bowl. It is said that city people will pretend that you look down on yourself, what is the difference between the city and the countryside, and the heart is so dark. Rural people are really hungry and tired after a day's farm work, and a small bowl is simply not enough! Moreover, urbanites have a fast pace of life, pay attention to health, and it is excusable to use small bowls!

Using more bowls is purely a personal habit. Different growth environments, different influences, different life culture views and different living environments have all been used. How big can the cabinet be? The kitchen in the city is so big that people are thirsty, for example. Choosing to drink water with a spoon or a cup, or drinking kungfu tea, is just a personal preference. According to your own needs, you use your big bowl and others use their small bowls. No one affects anyone, no one asks everyone to eat in a big bowl, and no one stipulates that you must eat in a tea bowl!

The big bowls for eating are mainly in the northern rural areas, and the most typical one is the old bowl in Guanzhong, Shaanxi Province. Now the old bowl used for mutton buns is smaller than before. In the northern countryside, there are few big bowls for eating, mainly relying on pasta. In the past, rural conditions were difficult, and there was basically no dining table. Kazuhiro Mori Bowl was enough for everyone to eat. By the way, squatting there and putting bowls after dinner also saves time. Another farmer eats a lot, and he can only eat more than a dozen bowls with that small bowl. The trouble is not numbness. I'm a farmer in Shaanxi, and I ate at most two and a half Jin of jiaozi (150), and I took 30 small bowls in the south. People who are not tired of eating are bored to death. By the way, I am 1.6 meters tall and weigh 60 kilograms.

When I was a child, I went to my uncle's house in the county, just in time for breakfast, so I didn't mention it. I ate three bowls of rice and three buns, and I didn't feel full. My uncle's family of four only prepared four steamed buns and four bowls of rice, and my uncle rushed to the street to buy steamed buns. Cousin said that rural dolls eat too much. Now our relatives have met my cousin and joked about how much country dolls eat.

Because rural people work hard and have a heavy workload, this appetite is definitely greater than that of urban people. If you use a small bowl, you rarely serve food back and forth, and it is not absolute to use a large bowl at one time. It's actually just a habit. Personally, I feel that I can't eat enough in a small bowl, so I can eat it in a big bowl. For most people, it is just right to use a small bowl instead of eating.

I have done a lot of work in the past. I can eat half a pot of rice in one meal. Now I live very well, the climate and environment are very comfortable, and there is no need to work hard. So where to eat a big bowl of rice? People who do farm work here can still eat three or four bowls of rice at a meal. A large appetite only means more consumption, which has little to do with the north and the south. Northerners eat more because of the cold.

I am a native of the countryside, born and raised in the countryside, and I have my own views on this phenomenon to share with you.

First, rural people are rough and straightforward, and eating in a big bowl is more casual. Compared with rural people, there are not so many stresses and rules. Pick up a big bowl, fill it with rice and eat it. City people are more gentle and elegant, and eating small bowls is more refined and elegant.

Second, eating in a big bowl can save time for backfilling rice. In the past, big families ate a lot, but they didn't eat much and didn't have enough to eat. When they start eating, they can put the rice in a big bowl at one time, so that it won't be filled by others. Rural people do farm work and have a fast pace of eating, so they don't have so much time to waste on the dinner table. Eating in a big bowl can save the time of loading rice back and forth. Generally, two bowls are enough for people who eat more, and a big bowl of rice with less is enough.

Life in the city is better, so you don't have to grab food, just eat slowly in a small bowl. This is a traditional habit left over from the past, and now people in rural areas and cities no longer have to grab food.

Third, rural people can eat relatively, and it is more convenient to use a big bowl. Rural people do more farm work and consume a lot of physical strength. Relatively speaking, they eat more food than city people, so it's better to eat big bowls. I remember when I was a child, my uncle next door often went to the mountains to mow grass and came back as fuel. He was there most of the day, and when he got home, he could eat 2 Jin of rice in one meal. Now think about it, who can have such an appetite to eat? Of course, it is most convenient and practical to put so much rice in a big bowl.

The fourth is to use a big bowl to facilitate eating outside the door and talking about mountains. Rural people like to gather in the alley at the end of the village to talk about mountains. Many gossip in the village is spread through such gatherings. Rural people eat big bowls of rice, and a big bowl has rice and vegetables. Sitting on the stone bench, everyone ate a big bowl and chatted, and then they were full. What a good rural program!

Nowadays, whether it is a city person or a rural person, whether it is a big bowl or a small bowl, it is just a living habit, and you can choose it yourself without any regulations. As long as you like.
