Chinese food is mainly starchy foods such as rice and pasta, and such staple foods generally do not add edible oil. The staple food of western food is meat, steak, lamb chops, fish, pork chops and so on. The cooking methods of these meats are fried or barbecued. As a China person, many people will not have enough to eat if they change their staple food.
Eating western food is not eating exotic flavor, but eating western culture. The food in the western restaurant is very small, just like the tea ceremony in China, and each cup is also very small. Not to quench your thirst, but to let you enter the atmosphere of tea ceremony culture. If you want to go to a western restaurant, you can order more. But locals usually go to restaurants to socialize, which shows their elegance and respect for each other.
In addition, the weight of western food seems to be small, in fact, there are many, because the main ingredients are generally beef, fish, seafood, and side dishes such as salad, mashed potatoes and French fries, which are a little less calorie, and it is also very big to eat slowly.
For example, German food is usually a big elbow. In China, the whole family eats together, while in Germany, one person eats the whole elbow. French food is rare, but according to the rules, you will choose a cheese when you are full, and you may not be able to eat it.
