Draft EE1

      Last year, in order to have a better education I came to American. When I first got here I cannot adapt to the new food and new eating habits. After seven months being in the USA, I have a whole picture of the American food and culture. From my prospective, this is because China and American have different culture which can cause the different food and habits things. For this reason, there are a lot of differences between Chinese food and American food. But there is still something in common between these two countries.

As we know, China has a very long history which means the food history is also very long. And due to the large area of territory, people who come from different part of China have different food. In north part of China, people prefer to have flour more than the rice, but in south part of China is totally opposite, people more like the rice. This is because in north the rice has slower process of growing than in south. For the American, I think this kind of different is not that obvious. In my university’s dining hall the main food are the hamburgers and pizzas. During the winter vacation I been to the west part of America (My university is in the middle part), California, the normal food in there is also pizzas, hamburgers and hotdogs.
