food leads development

           It was interesting to read the articles “The Cultural Politics of Eating in Shenzhen” and “ ‘Breaking Bread with a Spread’ in a San Francisco County Jail”. The author Mary Ann O’Donnell talks about the development and update of Shenzhen in China, as a Chinese, I am truly affected by the change of food and development by people and government, and also people play an important part in changing the food culture and the development situation. In addition, the author Sandra cate mentioned the food culture and business in a San Francisco County Jail which reflected the wisdom and imagination about people; also, I want to have a try the unique dish which put the pulverizing bread on the noodles.

           In old Shenzhen, people usually catch fish to eat because Shenzhen is in the south of China near the ocean. “Min Yi Shi Wei Tian” the author mentioned in the article direct reflects the main point which made the Shenzhen city developed today. The government supported the fisher and other people in Shenzhen when they met the questions about the fishing; also the business freedom in the full extent permitted by law is the important key to make an area developing. When Shenzhen got more and more developed, many people choose there as their survival place, which have freedom to take business and also can live depend on people’s ability. The reason why Shenzhen is in the lead in China is people in Shenzhen always catch fish, and they are so hard to get only if the fishers have a clever brain, it can also embody in business. To the contrary, people in the north always eat pork and beef; it is very easy to split about the pig and cattle.

          About the food in the San Francisco County Jail, It is amazing that the food the Chinese people made was very famous there. As the author mentioned, people always ate the same food there, the inmates made the unique food in jail because they can eat full by making the different kinds of food by using the remaining and the food in commissary.  What’s more, Spread became a favorite food and a kind of jail’s culture. The type of eating got more and more developed with people’s behaviors; the communication and activities were based on the food they made, such as, they shared food with people and gave their leader in jail. Finally, this behavior became a way to enhance the economics which cannot get across by people.

          Personally, I like the creative ability that the inmates had because it likes a master key to open any tough door.
