My food-related book's title is "The
globalization of Chinese food". This is edited by David Y.H. Wu and Sidney
C.H. Cheung. This book is divided into several parts, and each part is written
by different authors. From putting them together, the editor makes clear how
Chinese food relates to its culture and other country, and how internationally
that cuisine was created. The first chapter is about "food culture and
overseas trade". The history of food trading by China is described in very
detail in this part. Some graphs are shown in this part. The second chapter is
written about "sacred food from the ancestors". There was a conflict
among Chinese tribes. One group earn money by taking specific bird's nest for
food, however another group objected the act, because destroying it was
regarded as a bad behave in their creed. It shows religious food conflict.
