我國食品種類繁多,節日食俗也豐富多彩。春節***the SpringFestival***是我國的傳統節日,人們通常從它的前夜—除夕就開始張羅了。除夕那天,家家戶戶都要吃很豐盛的年夜飯。因為“魚”和“有餘”的“餘”讀者相同,為了預示新年節慶有餘,有些民族初一有吃魚的習俗。端午節***the Dragon BoatFestival***的重要食俗就是吃粽子***rice dumpling***。粽子越做越好,品種也越做越多。在中國,吃月餅是中秋節***the Mid-Autumn Festival***最具典型意義的食俗了。農曆八月十五這一 天,人們都喜歡閤家團聚,邊飲酒賞月,邊吃月餅。中秋吃月餅的習俗已有悠久的歷史。

當來中國的遊客發現一桌標準的8人晚宴有4道冷盤、4道熱菜,並配以湯和米飯時,他們往往會感到驚訝。一桌標準的宴席***banquet***包括4~8道準備好的冷盤,8道熱菜—每次只上1道熱菜,以及2-4道觀賞大菜***whole-sized showpiece dish***。同坐一張桌子的人互相敬酒時通常會“乾杯***Gan Bei***”。“乾杯”是指舉起酒杯,將酒全部喝完,讓玻璃杯或酒杯“連最後一滴也幹了”。人們乾杯時傳遞給別人的資訊是:自己是真誠、快樂的。向主人敬酒時,外國人更願意接受的方式是喝一小口而不是喝乾整杯。
