They are so interesting! Noodles are a symbol of longevity, chicken forms part of the symbolism of the dragon and phoenix, and the seed-filled snacks represent bearing many children in Chinese culture.记者：有没有哪些具有象征意义的食物让外国人大跌眼镜呢？Journalist： Is there any food symbolism that shocked foreigners?被访问：有，比如很多西方人看到整条鱼摆在盘子上都会退避三舍，而在中国整条鱼则象征着繁荣兴隆Interviewee：Yes, for example Westerners sometimes balk at the sight of an entire fish lying on a plate , while in China a fish served whole is a symbol of prosperity.记者：真是太有意思了！与您谈话很开心，也很有收获。谢谢！Journalist: Interesting!
