Text Unit 5 Eating Habits Changing Life-style and New Eating Habits 1. Americans today have different eating habits than in the past. There is a wide selection of food available. They have a broader knowledge of nutrition so they buy more fresh fruit and vegetables than ever before. At the same time, Americans purchase increasing quantities of 大 量的sweets, snacks小吃, and sodas. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 2. Statistics show that the way people live determines the way they eat. American life-styles have changed. They now include growing numbers of people who live alone, single parents and children, and double-income families. These changing life-styles are responsible for the increasing number of people who must rush meals or sometimes skip(miss) them altogether. Americans have less time than ever before to spend preparing food . Partly as a consequence of 由于什么样的结果this limited time, 60 percent of all American homes now have microwave ovens. Moreover, Americans eat out nearly four times a week on the average. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 3. It is easy to study the amounts and kinds of food that people consume. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the food industry— growers种植者, processors 处 理 器 , marketers 市 场 营 销 者 , and restaurateurs— compile sales statistics销售统计 and keep accurate records准确记录. This information not only tells us what people are eating but also tells us about the changes in attitudes and tastes. Red meat, which used to be the most popular choice for dinner, is no longer an American favorite. Instead, chicken, turkey, and fish have become more popular. Sales of these foods have greatly increased in recent years. This is probably a result of the awareness意识到 of the dangers of eating food which contains high levels of cholesterol胆固醇, or animal fat动 物油. Doctors believe that cholesterol is a threat 威胁to human health. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 4. According to a recent survey, Americans also change their eating patterns to meet the needs of different situations. They have certain ideas about which foods will increase their athletic ability运动能力, help them lose weight, make them alert警觉 for business meetings, or put them in the mood for romance. For example, Americans choose pasta, fruit意大利面食, and vegetables, which supply them with carbohydrates 碳 水 化 合 物 , to give them strength for physical activity, such as sports. Adults choose food rich in fiber, such as bread and cereal, for breakfast, and salads for lunch to prepare them for business appointments. For romantic dinners, however, Americans choose shrimp and lobster. While many of these ideas are based on nutritional facts, some are not. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 5. American’s awareness of nutrition, along with their changing tastes and needs, leads them to consume a wide variety of foods— foods for health, for fun, and simply for good taste. Background Information Unit 5 Eating Habits 1. American eating habits For the most part, Americans want their food to be quick, convenient, and cheap — regardless of whether they buy it at a supermarket or a local fast-food franchise. For lunch, sandwiches are the commonest food. Salads are also popular. For supper, the most popular has got to be steak and baked potato. Chicken and pizza are also popular. Americans like things that are fast and easy, requiring minimal personal or economic sacrifice. Americans also value “looking good” and choose foods that “look good. ” Some are even willing to spend a lot of money for food that makes them “look good” — as when they eat in expensive restaurants. The characteristics of America’s dominant food culture are cost, convenience, and appearance. However, a new American food ethic is emerging to challenge these dominant values. The rapid growth in demand for “alternative food products” — including organic, natural, pesticide free, hormone and antibiotic free, grassfed, etc. — is one indicator of the new food ethic, which reflects a desire to care for the earth and its people. Background Information Unit 5 Eating Habits 2. Diet 饮食 Americans have a love-hate relationship with dieting and exercise. They purchase millions of diet books and invest in gym memberships and exercise equipment but the number of calories they consume continues to rise. The majority of US adults and 15% of US children are overweight or obese肥胖. Despite a strong interest in healthy eating, Americans continue to consume snacks快餐,小吃 and sweets at alarming令人担忧 的 rates. Americans are also unwilling to forego(give up) convenience or taste for health benefits. More and more Americans are relying on fast food, shelf stable meals, and prepared foods, rather than cooking from scratch 凑 合 . Consumers’ food attitudes are also changing, reflected in the growing popularity of low carbohydrate products, functional foods and vegetarian and organic foods.有机食物 Background Information Unit 5 Eating Habits 3. British eating habits The British people tend to have a big breakfast before they go to work and the meal at midday is not spent with the members of the family but with workmates or schoolmates. Lunch is normally eaten between 12. 30 p. m. and 1. 30 p. m. Most people finish work at five thirty. It often takes at least an hour to get home from the school or workplace, so people tend to eat their evening meal or “dinner” between 6. 30 p. m. and 8 p. m. On Sundays people don’t have to work, so they usually get up very late and have a meal called brunch早午餐, which means a combination of breakfast and lunch. Sunday lunch is usually the best meal of the week and many of the typically特色 British food are eaten for Sunday lunch. For example roast beef and Yorkshire pudding. Background Information Unit 5 Eating Habits Breakfast Generally speaking, the British breakfast is much bigger than in most other countries. Many people like to have a fried breakfast, which consists of fried bacon咸肉 and eggs with fried bread and possibly fried tomatoes or black pudding. Of course not everybody wants to eat a lot early in the morning and many people prefer to just eat toast and marmalade with tea or coffee. Cereals谷类 are also very popular. The most common is cornflakes玉米片. They are made with different grains谷粒 such as corn, wheat, oats燕 麦, etc. In Scotland many people eat “porridge燕麦粥” or boiled oats. Porridge is very heavy but in winter it will keep you warm on your way to school. Background Information Unit 5 Eating Habits Packed lunch If you go to Britain to study English and you stay with a family you will almost certainly be given a “packed lunch” to eat for your midday meal. Some factories and schools have canteens where you can eat but the packed lunch is the most common thing to eat. A packed lunch normally consists of some sandwiches, a packet of crisps薯片, an apple and a can of something to drink, for example, coca-cola. The contents are kept in a plastic container and you take it with you when you go to school or work. Background Information Unit 5 Eating Habits Dinner Things are changing and most British people eat meals from many different countries, for example, spaghetti (意大利式细面条) or curry (咖喱食品). In fact, you could even say that the British don’t eat much British food. However, the most typical thing to eat for dinner is “meat and two veg”. This consists of a piece of meat accompanied by two different boiled vegetables. This is covered with “gravy” 肉汁which is a sauce调味汁 made with the juice that was obtained when the meat was cooked. One of the vegetables is almost always potato. The British eat a lot of potatoes.

Text • Text • Notes Unit 5 Eating Habits Text Unit 5 Eating Habits British Food 1 Traditional British food, with its emphasis on puddings, pies, cakes, meat dishes and fried food, no longer forms a main part of most people’s diet because of the trend towards lighter, more easily prepared food. Traditional methods of preserving meat and fish, such as salting and smoking, are no longer necessary and food such as kippers (smoked herrings), salt pork and beef, and bacon are eaten less frequently than before. Nevertheless, many traditional dishes survive, especially those associated with special occasions. Text 2 Unit 5 Eating Habits Eggs are eaten boiled, fried, or scrambled, with boiled eggs usually preferred soft, and traditionally cooked for three minutes. 3 Potatoes are one of the most common vegetables, served either as chips, roasted or mashed potatoes, or baked in their skins (jacket potatoes). Text 4 Unit 5 Eating Habits Breakfast often begins with fruit juice, followed by cereal to which milk and sugar are added. Some people, especially in Scotland, still prefer porridge to cereal, and eat it with milk and sugar or salt. A traditional English breakfast also includes a cooked dish such as bacon and eggs, but few people eat this nowadays, preferring a lighter “continental” breakfast. Toast and marmalade, and tea or coffee, complete the meal. Text 5 Unit 5 Eating Habits Puddings of all kinds are typically British, and the word itself can describe both savoury and sweet dishes, or mean simply “dessert” in general. Among the best-known sweet dishes are rice pudding, bread-and-butter pudding, steamed pudding, and Christmas pudding. Plum pudding (which does not contain plums) is another name for Christmas pudding. Other familiar desserts are fruit-based ones such as apple pie or gooseberry fool. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 6 There are many varieties of bread and cake. Bread is white or brown. There are different kinds of loaf, including the specially shaped cottage loaf and cob loaf. For a “continental” breakfast, many people now prefer French-type rolls such as croissants. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 7 Some foods are traditionally prepared for a particular festival or celebration. Christmas pudding is eaten at Christmas, pancakes are often served (as a sweet course, with lemon and sugar) on Shrove Tuesday, and hot cross buns are eaten on Good Friday. Special big cakes are prepared for weddings and birthdays. Wedding cakes are usually elaborately iced and decorated, with two or more tiers; birthday cakes are also normally iced, with the person’s age shown by the number of small candles stuck in the icing. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 8 The British enjoy eating sweets, especially chocolate, and the many popular types of confectionery include toffee, mints and boiled sweets. Sticks of rock are traditionally popular in holiday resorts, as are ice cream, candy floss and other “fun foods”. Text Unit 5 Eating Habits 9 In recent years there has been an increase in the consumption of “convenience” and unhealthy “junk” foods, but also a growing interest in healthy, natural or “organic” foods. At the same time, the British diet now includes many dishes that would formerly have been regarded as exotic or unusual. Among the most popular are Chinese, Indian and Italian, which have largely been popularized by ethnic restaurants.

This is done to save time (you have to eat, and you have to do business). A full western meal may consist of several courses: the first course (or starter), which can be soup, appetizer(冷盆) or salad; the main course, with meat or fish, served with vegetables; and the sweet course (or dessert) with puddings, pies, ice cream, etc. The meal may be preceded by drinks, followed by after-dinner drinks, and accompanied by wine. Eating in the restaurant, customers may choose from table d’hôte (套餐) or a la carte(点菜) menu. Table d’hôte menu has a restricted number of dishes at a single price for the whole meal, while a la carte menu has many different dishes at different prices, from which a guest can choose what to eat. A hosted business meal is often served buffet-style(自助餐方式). People line up and serve themselves from a central table, and random seating is more common than assigned seating. Humor Time Unit 5 Eating Habits Two men, John and Jim, while travelling through the country in America, stopped at a small inn for dinner. On the table there was a large cup of mustard (芥末). Thinking the contents were a sweet of some kind, Jim took a spoonful of it and put it in his mouth. Tears ran down his cheeks, but wishing to have his friend John caught in the same trap, he said nothing of the mistake he had made. The other man, seeing that his friend was crying, said: “Listen, Jim, what are you crying about ?” “I was thinking of my father who was hanged twenty years ago,” Jim replied. Soon after, John took a spoonful of the mustard, and as the tears started down his cheeks, Jim in his turn said: “What are you crying about ?” “To think you were not hanged the same day your father was,” came the answer.
