Why "Engel's Coefficient" is not suitable to explain China's economy? This video tells you the answer.👇😂 In China, eating is not about survival, eating is more about enjoying life. And Engel, the German, doesn't understand that.

Chinese live to eat, others eat to live. Foreigners will never get it.

Indeed, the Germans don’t understand the pleasure & art of food/life. True expressions: - in FR: “Germans don’t eat, they ingest” (ie eating is abt getting calories not pleasure) - in DE: “(eat/live) like god in France”; even Germans ack’d they suck when it come to pleasure

Eating is very important in Chinese culture. Even we say hello to each other by saying: "Ciak Pah Bwe" (Have you eaten?)

The media won’t tell you, and woke liberals are clueless: Trump’s roaring comeback is driven by everyday Americans fed up with soaring bills, not obsessed about a dozen genders or the right to a transgender bathroom. #AbookThatChangesEverything #TrumpWon

I learn something from chinese's ethnic in my country. They will work like 24/24 in weekday, and in the weekend they will spend a lots of 24/24 money for family's dinner

For the longest time, eating is for survival in China when most of the country is extremely poor. Now that poverty, especially food poverty in China, has been eliminated, food has become more than just for nourishment.

Most Germans understand 0 what eating good food /enjoying life means

It's a huge headache for many Western economist to adjust to new economic reality destroyed by China. It's really back to square one to rewrite the rules and reality of economic theories.

Westerners have been brainwashed by their governments and media to believe that China is struggling and oppressed. In reality, China is thriving and has surpassed the US since 2015 as the world's biggest economy (GDP-PPP).

How can you guys eat such crazy amounts of food and not get fat?
