It's convenient. It's as simple as it can be. It's convenient to use leftovers from the night before. At most, an egg roll is added. Convenience can also be colorful, and the most abundant is the convenience of the Spring Festival. Three boxes together, all kinds of seafood and sushi restaurants are neatly packed in lunch boxes, which is very tempting. In addition, Japan itself will also associate convenience with trains. The famous trains all come out with convenience, which will integrate local characteristics, conform to the growth and development of the four seasons, and have different tastes at different stages.
Such a variety of convenient culture and art can not help but bring doubts to people. It's convenient for the Japanese, and it usually gets cold after drinking at noon. Even if the lunch box has heat preservation function, white rice and side dishes will get cold after drinking. How can the Japanese accept the convenience of eating cold rice and cold dishes without ordering takeout? Remember, the take-away food in our country is delivered to customers, and the ambient temperature is still very hot.
It turns out that Japanese people often like to eat cold and convenient, and there is a bigger reason that they are afraid that the convenient fragrance will harm people. As we all know, when the ingredients are cold, the original strong taste will be reduced. A dish that is originally hot will stink when it is refrigerated. Japanese housewives make it convenient in the morning, and they need to put it on the table for refrigeration until the ingredients are cold, then cover it and let the husband take the children to eat together.
This convenience is getting colder and colder at noon. But the cold ambient temperature just makes the food in the box tasteless. It doesn't have much flavor, so everyone can eat it together conveniently, and no one will feel offended by the smell emitted by a convenience. If it is convenient to buy it in a chain convenience store and take it back to eat, then you can ask the staff to help heat it up. In short, convenience means taking something back to eat without affecting others, which shows that I still like spicy food in Japan.
In addition to worrying about the impact on others, the Japanese also attach great importance to convenient design schemes. Japan's own diet is very light, and the dishes are generally less oily and salty. Even if it is cooled, this dish will not condense into an oil star. We can usually find some common elements in Japanese-style lunch boxes, such as green plums, egg rolls, chicken chops and pickled cold salads. This kind of food is not only edible, but also won't be difficult to swallow when it is cold. Although it is cold, there is rice or delicious food in it.
It is convenient to eat cold for a long time. Aren't Japanese friends afraid of their stomach damage? For young people themselves, there is still no need to worry about gastrointestinal problems, because young people are very strong. Compared with adults, in addition to the convenience of eating cold, they will also bring an insulated water cup, which smells like tea or hot sauce. It is convenient for them to drink a cup of tea or spicy sauce to warm their stomachs after eating cold.
Taking us back to the starting point, the main reason why Japan is willing to eat cold food is already answered, so why is Japan unwilling to order takeout? First, because it is difficult to develop the take-away industry in Japan, it is inevitable to use human resources to deliver food. In Japan, human resources are in short supply and labor costs are high, which is not cost-effective. Second, Japan likes to eat cold food, and take-away food is mostly soft food, which is rich in flavor and very easy to influence others. Third, there are more and more chain convenience stores in Japan, and there will be them in a few steps. It's better to go downstairs to the convenience store chain than to order takeout.
Therefore, in Japan, it is difficult for the take-away industry to go on. Even your favorite tea shop today, people are willing to queue up to buy it instead of ordering takeout. It is better to say that Japan itself has long been used to waiting in line for something to eat. If you go to Japan and see a long line outside the store, don't be surprised.
