英国饮食习惯中英文对照
Eating habits
As a nation we are becoming more aware of the food we and our children are eating.The recent campaign to improve school dinners by celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has helped raise awareness of our fast food lifestyles.
Healthy eaters or just trendy?
Are there certain things that you do and don’t eat and why?With so many food programmes and books telling you what you should and shouldn’t eat to be healthy it’s hard to keep track.Some people are vegetarians for moral reasons,some don’t like the taste of meat and there are one or two people who do it because it’s trendy.Likewise,it can be trendy to follow the latest celebrity diet because it’s what the famous are doing.
Eating out
People are eating out more frequently now,not just on special occasions as in the past.The choice of restaurants has also diversified over the last few decades.Italian,Chinese and Indian restaurants have been around for years but have now been joined by Mongolian,Japanese,Mexican and Turkish amongst others.Bars and pubs are still popular for food and often promote English cuisine made with local produce.For the Queen’s recent 80th birthday celebrations,top UK chefs battled it out to create the Great British Menu to serve at a birthday banquet.
‘We enjoy eating out a couple times and month whether with friends or just as a couple.We like trying new things so go to different restaurants.’ Craig,25,County Durham.
Eating on the go
From chocolate bars to sandwiches and wraps more people are eating on the go - on the street,in cars or on buses and trains.While our parents and grandparents may frown at this behaviour,considering it to be bad manners,people eat on the go because they are rushing from one place to another.And in the home the number of people sitting down at a dining table for their evening meal is on the decrease as meal times become more informal.
‘If I’m running late for work I don’t think twice about eating toast in the car or on the bus but I know my mum wouldn’t approve.’ Stacey,24,Leeds.
Whilst we may be trying to eat more healthily it seems we still have some bad habits.
