What is the difference between Chinese people eating cake and foreigners eating cake?

Cake first originated in the West, and was slowly introduced to China. Chinese people first started to eat cake because of specific festivals (e.g. birthdays), switching from eating red eggs and longevity noodles on birthdays to eating cake. At that time, the most common cakes were ordinary cream cakes and cupcakes. I remember when I was a kid, I used chopsticks to eat cake. Later, the cake slowly became popular in China, in addition to birthdays, anniversaries and wedding banquets, friends will eat the cake, and people slowly changed to use a fork to eat the cake.

Because the Chinese dining culture advocates a lively and festive atmosphere, people like to sit around and eat and drink, and talk and laugh. As the saying goes, "Eat the cake, talk about the friendship". Therefore, Chinese people eat cake more casually, not too elaborate. The more familiar friends sitting around eating cake together may not cut the cake, but everyone together you a mouthful of my mouthful of food. When there are more people, they will cut the cake, either equally or according to the amount of food they want to eat.

And foreigners eating cake are much more particular about it compared to the Chinese. They have their own specific set of table manners. Foreigners sit upright as well as try to be quiet and make no noise while eating. Large cakes are cut into smaller pieces, and then the cake is placed on the plate with both hands and brought to the mouth in small pieces with a fork. A normal cake is eaten from the side closest to you, while a triangle-shaped cake is eaten from the top.
