What does "real Chinese food" look like in the eyes of westerners?

Early Chinese food still appeared in the form of traditional Chinese food abroad because they entrusted the homesickness of foreign tourists. Later, because of the birth of Chinese restaurants, the food changed according to the tastes of local people, typically American Chinese food. Of course, some Chinese restaurants will keep China traditional dishes when catering to the tastes of local westerners, which is why many westerners feel that there are two versions when eating in Chinese restaurants.

Especially in recent years, after eating traditional Chinese food has gradually become popular abroad, foreigners have also found that they have real Chinese food. So what does "real Chinese food" look like in the eyes of westerners? Now let's listen to what foreigners say. Some foreigners' answers are very bright.

A foreigner replied: Is it really authentic Chinese food? I personally ate a lot in China, and the color, smell and taste of the food are very different from those of Indian food in our country and American Chinese food in the United States. This is quite mild, because the eyes don't like the taste. The raw materials are authentic, and there is no seasoning we like. The Beijing roast duck we ordered was raw, not the best choice for the first time. But they are delicious and fried with duck skin in honey sauce. Crispy and delicious.

There is also a foreigner's answer, he said: At first glance, it is difficult to determine that they are food, but they are on the table. The host asks you to sit down and then lets you eat these things you don't know what they are. I feel terrible. In order not to offend the host, you pick up chopsticks (you feel like a child) and most of the food is cut into pieces. Everyone wants to know what this is. Then the answer you get is all kinds of animal meat, God forgive me.

Some foreigners replied: Western "Chinese food" will tend to use ingredients that they are generally familiar with. Americans usually like beef, chicken, pork, shrimp, dairy products, potatoes, tomatoes and carrots. Therefore, the "China" food that people usually go there to eat is made of these and put in rice, noodles or soup. It's totally different in China. Strange ingredients include many things that are not common in the west, such as turtles, frogs, insects, exotic marine animals, snakes, Chinese cabbage, bamboo shoots, bitter gourd, giant radish, lotus, tofu, mung beans and so on.
