They always live on rice. They eat glutinous rice in northern Chiang Mai and Cai Qing, and japonica rice in other places. I like western food for breakfast, such as toast, butter, jam, coffee, milk, fried eggs and so on. Some also like fried dough sticks and soybean milk, while I like Chinese lunch and dinner. In taste, they generally require light, fresh and greasy. Favorite non-staple food is mainly fish, shrimp and vegetables. They have a dish called "Bala", which is to dry the small fish overnight with salt axils, and then put the rice in an urn and cook it with coconut juice. There is also a dish called "Fish Fog", which is steamed in fish with coconut juice, vegetable leaves and peppers. In addition, sour pork, roast pigskin and chopped raw beef sauce are also their favorite foods. There are no banana buds in vegetables except common vegetables and melons. Mimosa and all kinds of tender, non-toxic and tasteless wild plants can be mixed with shrimp sauce as their next meal. They especially like to use spices such as pepper, fish sauce and monosodium glutamate when cooking, but generally they don't use sugar. The hotter the peppers they eat, the better. This is the so-called custom of "no pepper, no food". In Thai restaurants, almost every table has old products made of Chili, and even soy sauce is soaked in Chili.
