In Wu Chengen's "Journey to the West", Zhu Bajie attracts attention with his unique personality and dietary preferences.

His food philosophy is summarized as "five meat dishes and three dislikes", which demonstrates his food preferences and health concepts.

The "five meats", namely pork, beef, mutton, chicken and fish, are his favorites. He believes that these meats are rich in nutrients, can meet the body's demand for protein, and bring a rich taste.

However, the "three dislikes" - onions, ginger, and garlic, are his dietary taboos.

Zhu Bajie believes that these condiments are too spicy and may mask the original flavor of the food and make the dishes too exciting.

This reflects his pursuit of the original taste of food and his rigorous attitude towards food quality.

Zhu Bajie's diet strategy is actually a pursuit of a balance between health and food. He focuses on the combination of meat and vegetables to achieve a balanced intake of nutrients.

For us modern people, Zhu Bajie’s concept of “Five Meats and Three Dislikes” has practical guiding significance.

While enjoying delicious food, we should pay attention to a healthy diet, reduce the intake of greasy food, and control the use of salt and additives.

Drawing on the wisdom of Zhu Bajie, we should not only enjoy the delicious food, but also pay attention to the balance of nutrition to maintain good physical condition and improve the quality of life.

In general, Zhu Bajie’s dietary principles are not only the eating habits of a mythical character, but also provide a healthy dietary inspiration and direction for food exploration in our modern life.
