The specific poems about food are as follows:

1. An excerpt from "Sitting idle with a full meal" of Tang Dynasty. Bai Juyi's red-grained land rice and white-scaled bream. The cook calls me to eat, the rice is hot and the fish is delicious. Chopsticks fit my mouth, spoons fit my intestines. The Eight Treasures and the Five Cauldrons cannot be thought about again.

Translation

Lotte said that the red rice grains of Luhun rice and the white fish scales of Yishui bream have been cooked. The boy passing the rice in the kitchen called me to start the meal. The rice is steaming hot and the fish is fresh and fragrant. One chopstick after another, one spoon after another, these dishes are all so suitable to my taste, making my stomach and intestines so comfortable.

Don’t tell me about the Wuding etiquette that only scholar-bureaucrats can enjoy, and the delicacies made of eight precious ingredients. Now, I have no interest in thinking about these? It is said that food can heal people's hearts. The world is busy, and what really warms you is the bowl of human fireworks in your hand.

2. "Summer Mountain Living Is Good. Part One" Song Dynasty. Shu Yuexiang lives in the mountains in summer, and the water cakes on the thatched eaves are fragrant. The body of the banana shirt is simple and clean, and the top of the gauze hat is cool. The well is covered with moist leaves and mulberry trees, and the new shoots are hanging over the wall. Don't say it's hot and bitter, but the best place is bitter and cold.

Translation

On a hot summer day, living in the mountains makes you feel cool. Under the thatched eaves, the aroma of water cakes floats, and the banana is like a green umbrella, holding it above your head. The new bamboo shoots have also grown. Don’t say that the weather is too hot, it is better than the freezing winter. The poet is in the mountains, eating water cakes and enjoying the pastoral scenery. His life is extremely comfortable and pleasant.

3. "Autumn Evening in Yongjia" Song Dynasty. Folk customs in the real mountains: Knocking on paper windows with dry tung trees, hugging fur coats and having no sleep at all. There are three drums in the woodcutter tower and it is almost noon at night. The clouds and geese sound several times and the sky is frosty. Living in this world, I am shocked by the adverse journey. Where can I be more generous than my hometown? The scenery at the head of the river is intoxicating every day, and the wine is delicious, the crabs are fat, the oranges are fragrant.
