Food is very interesting in China. We are forced to remember that we are not in America. We are in another country so the food tastes different. It's just different. We have been playing it safe and eating at the school canteen, KFC, McDonalds, Subways, Yoshinoya- a large Japanese food chain, and restaurants that have those delicious noodles in soup with chicken or beef and veggies which is great. So of course our taste buds are in shock and even those who aren't picky eaters are saying --- WHAT IS THAT? But overall the food in China is great!

The utensil for every meal is chopsticks.
