For my first major written assignment, my thesis is that the way of eating shows the cultural difference. The way Americans eats meal is different from Asians eat. Most of restaurants in United States serve customer with a individual plate. Except for foreign food restaurant, I could barely find any other place where you can share food from on big bowl. On the other hand, most of restaurants in Asia serve one big bowl of stew for all of the crews. Then the crews share the bowl with their spoons. This difference in way of eating shows that Americans are more individualistic and Asians are more collective. Also, the usage of chopstick in Asia embosses the difference of the culture. It is easy to share foods from one big plate with chopsticks. On the other hand, sharing food with using fork is troublesome process.
I was very surprised to know all of those facts. When I searched food and cultural difference, those two facts were the first ones that I found. I never thought about the difference in way of eating. After I encountered these facts, I was able to understand more about American culture.
