The development of food in Shenzhen is relatively slow. The food desert city in my mind is Shenzhen. Shenzhen is an international city with a large immigrant population and high-tech industries, but it is called a "food desert" in terms of food. This is

Because Shenzhen’s food culture is relatively weak and unable to meet people’s diverse taste needs.

So, what do we think of Shenzhen’s food desert?

First of all, the existence of food deserts in Shenzhen is an objective fact, which reflects Shenzhen’s shortcomings in food culture.

As an emerging city, Shenzhen's urban construction has developed rapidly. However, in the process, many traditional snack stalls and time-honored restaurants have been demolished, resulting in the loss of Shenzhen's food culture.

At the same time, Shenzhen is located in the Pearl River Delta, where the climate is hot and humid, which is not conducive to the cultivation of crops. As a result, local food ingredients have a single variety and are difficult to meet the diverse taste needs.

These objective factors have led to the existence of food deserts in Shenzhen.

Secondly, we should see the problem of food deserts in Shenzhen and actively look for solutions.

Relevant government departments can introduce relevant policies to encourage local farmers to grow more local ingredients. They can also support the protection and development of local snack stalls and time-honored restaurants to protect and inherit Shenzhen's food culture.

Relevant departments can also introduce more international catering brands and food culture to meet the diverse taste needs of the foreign and local populations, and at the same time promote the development and growth of Shenzhen's food market.

In addition, we can also promote the inheritance and development of Shenzhen's food culture by strengthening the promotion and cultivation of food culture and encouraging local and foreign populations to understand Shenzhen's food culture.

We should face the problem of Shenzhen’s food desert with a positive attitude.

Food culture is an important part of a city's culture. It can not only satisfy people's appetite, but also promote the city's economic development and cultural exchanges.

Therefore, we should actively seek solutions with an open and inclusive mind to promote the development and growth of Shenzhen’s food culture and make Shenzhen a true “city of food.”
