What do Germans eat for three meals a day? What are the table manners?

The distribution of three meals a day in Germany is generally: breakfast at seven o'clock, lunch at one o'clock and dinner at seven o'clock in the evening. Unlike us, Germans are not rich in lunch or dinner, but in breakfast. Some Germans are used to "adding meals" at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, that is, having a cup of coffee or tea and eating a cake or biscuits.

German breakfast is not only rich in variety, but also delicious. The content of breakfast is generally to drink drinks first, including coffee, tea, various juices, milk and so on. The staple food is all kinds of bread, as well as butter, cheese and jam with bread, plus sausage and ham. Provide enough energy for its intense work in the morning. Their lunch is generally simple, such as a piece of cooked meat, patties with stir-fried dishes and bread, or stewed beef with rice and lettuce, followed by a cup of coffee or an ice cream. Germans simplify lunch not to save money, but to save time. As we all know, Germans work very hard and time is money. Dinner is usually a cold meal with rich contents: a large plate of meat, fresh and delicious vegetables, and fresh fruits, such as grapes and cherries. There are also various flavors of cheese, and bread is the staple food.

Most people have an appetizing soup before dinner. The main course is either fish or meat. Germans generally eat a lot and like greasy food, so there are many fat people in Germany. In terms of taste, Germans like to eat cold dishes and sweet and sour dishes. In terms of drinks, Germans like beer best. There are also famous wurst, German mung bean soup, German sashimi, German roasted miscellaneous meat, wurst, sauerkraut, German apple crisp, fried biscuits and so on.

The general etiquette at the dinner table should be to wait for the old man to sit down before taking a seat. If there are ladies at the table, they should wait until the ladies are seated. Sit upright and keep a proper distance from the dining table. The napkin should be spread out and placed on the thigh at the top of the knee. Avoid talking with food in your mouth. When taking vegetables and scooping soup, use chopsticks, spoons, toothpicks and cover them with hands or handkerchiefs. Drink alcohol at will, toast politely, and avoid persuasion, guessing boxing and making noise. After eating, the tableware must be placed neatly and not misplaced. Napkins should also be folded and put on the table. When leaving the seat, you should help the old man or woman next to you to drag the seat.
