After a little practice, you can enjoy the delicious Chinese food with chopsticks.As the saying goes, “when in Rome, do as the Romans do”. foreigners in China have to follow some rules. For example, never try to turn a fish over. It will be thought that bad luck will happen and a fishing boat will overturn if you do that. There are also some other superstitions associated with chopsticks foreigners have to take care.In China, foods are always given different meanings.
