What does non-staple food include?

Non-staple food refers to non-staple food such as chicken, duck, fish, fruits and vegetables used for dinner except rice and noodles.

Instant noodles, bread, biscuits, milk wind and sausages are all non-staple foods.

There are many kinds of non-staple food, including meat, eggs, milk, poultry, fish, beans and vegetables. Their nutritional functions are also different. Animal foods such as meat and beans are rich in protein and fat, but lack vitamins and inorganic salts, especially vitamin C.

The protein content of vegetables is very small, but they are rich in vitamins and inorganic salts, and some vegetables are also rich in vitamin C. If all kinds of non-staple foods are eaten together, they can learn from each other's strengths and make people get more comprehensive nutrition.

Matching method:

First, vegetarian food should be well matched.

The collocation of meat and vegetables is an important principle of non-staple food allocation. The combination of meat and vegetable can solve the complementary problems in protein, such as the combination of bean products, gluten and animal proteins such as meat, eggs and poultry, which can greatly improve the nutritional value of protein.

Second, raw and cooked collocation

This is especially important for vegetables, because vitamins C and B in vegetables are easily destroyed when heated. Cooked vegetables always lose some vitamins, so eating some fresh lettuce can not only retain a lot of vitamins, but also stimulate appetite.
