If there are vegetables, they are basically vegetarian. Where there is rice, there is jiaozi, or two dishes and one soup. But they are basically vegetarian dishes.

Historical origin

The canteen originated in the summer and autumn of 1958, and was called "public canteen" at that time, which was organized by the government. It was the time of political madness, and it was completely ineffective for farmers to pretend to be poor to fight against this madness, so setting up public canteens was just one of a series of romantic fanaticism. People get steamed buns and eat in public canteens. At first, the canteen was very prosperous.
