People eat different things in different parts of the world.
In some countries, people eat meat every day. Sometimes they eat it two or three times a day: for breakfast, lunch and supper. They eat rice with meat, fish and vegetables.
Some people do not eat some kinds of meat. Muslins (穆斯林), for example, do not eat pork (猪肉).
Japanese eat lots of fish. Their country is near the sea. So it is easy for them to get fish.
In Western countries such as Britain, Australia (澳大利亚)and the USA, the most important food is bread and potatoes. People there can cook potatoes in many different ways.
Some people only eat fruit and vegetables. They do not eat meat, fish or anything from animals. They only eat food from plants (植物). They say that food from plants is better for us than meat. These people are called vegetarians (素食者).
