Chinese Internet's reaction to White People Food is how Desi folks look at Western food
www.dailyo.in
Indians will know how their parents pack their food in literal luggages if they are travelling even a little further away from their home and kitchen. Imagine making them eat REAL Western food, not McDonald's burgers and Dominoes Pizza in India.

“People on TikTok to lifestyle-sharing app Xiaohongshu have been sharing their latest fascination, admiration and even disgust at what they are calling “báirén fàn” or White People Food.” 😂

    Feels like yet another article that just makes you want to get upset with another group of people.

        yeah in general of all the international banter, food banter seems like the most harmless, most funny, and generally least mean-spirited of the lot

          I’d say that that applies to regional foods as well with barbecue being the notable exception. The BBQ wars are still being fought to this day. Everyone knows eastern North Carolina vinegar based pulled pork is the best. Don’t @ me, the state of Texas. Lol

    “The point of the white people’s meal is to learn what it feels like to be dead, but I’ve taken two bites and it was so bad it made me realize how alive I am."

    These are hilarious. But there’s a tidbit in there about the “996” work thing in China. 9am-9pm 6 days a week. That’s terrible. How do you do literally anything else?
