COVID-19: Increasing attention in China: “Japan lifestyle”
COVID-19:
[Insight ☆ China]:
The traditional way of life in China is about to change.
If anything, it seems that “I think we are getting closer to Japan lifestyle.”
◆It is not calm without a mask
China:
Corona infection seems to have calmed down, but “the Chinese have become accustomed to wearing masks at all times.”
Until now, most of the people wearing masks on the streets of China are Japanese.
It is no exaggeration to say that the mask is a symbol of the Japanese.
Japan:
Originally, Japanese use masks to prevent colds from passing on to others and to prevent air pollution in China.
Until now, Japanese people in masks have always looked suspicious when looking at Japanese people.
◆Chopsticks are popular at meals
And when eating, the dietary system (individual meal) and chopsticks called “Gong Kuai” have become widespread.
China:
In China, it’s a style that surrounds a table and eats from the platter in the middle with your own chopsticks.
Also, it is hospitality to recommend customers to take a side dish with their own chopsticks and enjoy more and more.
Japan:
there are many small side dishes on top of each set.
This is a multi-course meal, the exact opposite of Chinese platter.
Recent trends:
Many people think that the Japanese style is very hygienic and we have to emulate it.
Currently, in cities such as Shanghai and Beijing, restaurants are becoming more individualized and’using chopsticks’ is becoming established.
◆ Review of diet
Japan:
Japan is a country of longevity.
In Japan, it is recommended to eat more than 35 ingredients per day.
China:
Recently, eating out habits have dramatically decreased in China.
In China, it is considered that “one of the reasons is the dietary habits of reducing salt and not being oily.”
With Corona, the number of people who enjoy home-cooked healthy home cooking has increased dramatically.
Nursing homes in Shanghai:
Above all, it was impressive that an acquaintance who runs a nursing home in Shanghai was talking the other day.
When an acquaintance visited a Japanese nursing home before,
Change to slippers at the entrance,
Wash your hands and gargle,
I entered the nursing room for the first time.
It had a great impact.
