u/Lee911123 7h ago

Could be a regional thing?

中餐 typically means Lunch (for the non speakers), but it can also mean 中國餐

Instead of Chinese food, most Chinese people more often say something like canton food and sichuan food according to provinces the cooking style originated.

In America it's just called food. In Mexico, it's call food. In Japan, it's called food. So what point were you making?

u/Caturion 19h ago

Nobody is really trying to make any point here... This is how modern memes work, pointless, just like our lives.

u/Alternative_Cod7515 6h ago

Say, when i say Japanese food do you think Pizza ? /j

(Maybe, idk who you are.)

It's just the local (the one who make the language) catagorize way tk cook food from else where. In my country we call american food "west food" despite it's somewhat closer to the east.

Anyhow, the meme is just meme

u/Junko_Mioko974 3h ago
