Plus, northerners tend to drink porridge with sugar. Of course, there are some who don’t like to add it.
Northerners are accustomed to eating multigrain porridge or soybean porridge, and basically do not add any salt. But southerners are different. Most of their porridge is white rice porridge, and most of it is salty porridge. They even add various fish, meat and eggs as ingredients to make salty porridge. To be honest, I also like to eat preserved egg porridge, but The porridge in the south not only contains oil, but also salt. If you eat porridge and vegetables at the same time, your body will inevitably consume an excessive amount of oil and salt, which is naturally very detrimental to health and puts a heavy burden on the kidneys. Of course, this does not mean that northern porridge has no shortcomings at all. Northerners generally have one biggest problem with porridge: they like to add a lot of sugar. Excessive sugar intake can easily lead to obesity. Moreover, northern porridge with too much sugar will naturally become porridge that is not suitable for diabetics.
