Unit 6 Food Useful information Food is a basic necessity ,so every culture has important norms（规范） and customs related to it. The forms of dining vary in cultures. Some use formal meals as a way of meeting, socializing, while others treat meals as a form of recreation or entertaining. Because of the fast pace of modern life,eating away from home in resaurant,taverns (小酒馆) or hotels has long been an option of people. As eating habits have changed, table manners tend to decline, though proper etiquette is still needed on formal occasions. Mealtime differs considerably from culture to culture and from household to household.Usually the 2nd and the 3rd meals are the largest ,as we call them ‘dinner’.Some who skip breakfast may prefer ‘brunch’ istead. And ‘tea’ in the afternoon is a fourth meal in a day. The biggest recent change in food-related lifestyle is the rising of fastfood.Sociologist George Ritzer uses the metaphor of ‘Mcdonaldization’ to criticize the entire cultural trend toward standardized pre-packaged products which can be quickly consumed.
