饮食对象折射民族性格
西方人秉承游牧民族、航海民族的文化血统,以渔猎、养殖为主,以采集、种植为辅,这注定了西方的饮食对象是以肉类和奶制品为主.西方的自然条件不利于发展农业,土质稀薄缺水,不适宜种植水稻,但适合种植麦子和草,而大片的草原利于畜牧业的发展,因此牛羊肉和奶产品丰富.而“西方人认为吃饭是为了充饥,至少不是以享受味道为首要目的,所以西方人多生吃蔬菜,不仅西红柿,黄瓜,生菜生吃,就连洋白菜,西兰花也都生吃,并且他们还吃带血的牛排和大白肉.”(卞浩宇,高永晨.2004.2)“根据饮食对象的不同,把西方人称为动物性格,而把中国人称为植物性格.”(张从益,2004)笔者认为,就民族性格而言,西方人为“生猛性格”,中国人为“蓄静性格”这种性格反映在文化行为价值观上就是,中国人喜欢安居乐业,固本守己而西方人则偏向于开拓冒险.西方人喜欢吃生菜还吃带血的牛排,表现出他们勇于开拓的民族性格.和中国人相比,西方人更有野心和魄力,他们不会表现出强烈的思乡情结,敢于走出国门,在世界各地创业拼搏.他们富有冒险精神,愿意尝试不同性质的工作,敢于在一个全新的环境中挑战自己,这也是美国的西部开发得以成功的原因之一.

(BianHaoYu,GaoYongChen.2004.2) "according to the different diet object,the westerners called animals disposition,and the Chinese call plant character." (tickets from debuffs,2004),the author thinks that national character is concerned,western artificial "character",Chinese dishes as "storage static character" this character reflected in cultural behavior values is,Chinese like to keep yourself in favor of a good and prosperous life,while the westerners prefer to exploit adventure.Westerners like to eat lettuce also eat with the blood steak,to demonstrate their brave in exploitation of national character.Compared with Chinese people,westerners more ambitious and insight,they won't show strong homesickness complex,dares to go abroad,worldwide entrepreneurial struggle.They full of adventure,willing to try different nature of the work,the courage to a new environment of challenging ourselves,and it is also American western development is one of the reasons for successful.
