As soon as I saw the video title I was like "oooof", especially since Peter is an adult, who clearly loves his Southern Chinese cuisine. Good on him for being such a good sport though! He basically reacted exactly how I expected him to react, especially with the reversing between sweet/savoury of certain foods between the North and the South.

You're gonna start a civil war with this! Peter is the best! It's like the differences between a New York palate and a Southern palate in the US! In New York, the palate is international thanks to the different immigrant groups that moved to NY like Cubans, Russians, and of course the Chinese while also being very Italian-centric thanks to the huge Italian immigration to the Northeast. While the Southern palate is all barbecue, spices, and deep fried food like BBQ baby-back ribs, fried pickles, and jambalaya. Though New York (specifically Upstate) is where Buffalo wings were created! Like northern and southern China, the history and climate of these two regions influenced the cuisines into what it is today. I don't blame him at all for being confused. It's like scientists calling red pandas that even though they're not related to giant pandas what so ever, or calling koala bears that despite them being marsupials!

The differences in palate is even more stark than in the US, if you think about it. China is a larger country, with a much longer history than the US. It means that regional differences have gotten a really long time to magnify, plus China has only recently modernised, so even dishes developed from less than 100 years ago haven't spread much. In contrast, the US, though it has a lot of differences in regional foods mostly due to immigrants, has still exported many of its foods throughout the US, and tastes have begun to homogenize. Even though the South prefers more spiced dishes, you still see a lot of it in the North, and demand for things like hot sauces and chili peppers is on the rise throughout the US.

@@Krossfyre Yes! Also the south has gotten a significant brunt of the immigration since the 1970s, while the north, outside of NYC and DC, hasn't gotten as much as it did historically (though it still gets a decent chunk, just not as much as when shipping meant port cities and train connected cities got the brunt). Many southern cities like Houston and Atlanta have large Vietnamese communities. Atlanta has one of the biggest K-Towns in the U.S. And the variety of Central and South American foods grew substantially in the last two decades. And we're gotten quite a bit of Syrian and Iranian immigration across the whole country. Heck, when I studied French at GA Tech, the class specialized around West Africa since that's the local french speaking community in Atlanta. And the recent South Asian population has its niche in both sides of the country too. If anything I have noticed that the true difference in available *restaurants* is based on the Eastern European and Jewish immigration that NYC got. We don't have anywhere near that does Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Georgian, Kazakh or the like. You really have to go out to meat markets closer to Texas to find any of that in significant numbers. Atlanta is not a knish and pierogi city, that's for sure! (And yet we have a supermarket where you can get all your Eastern European classics--weird!)

I definitely don't blame you for missing peanut butter! Having a simple peanut butter on toast or as a sandwich with some jelly hits the right spot. The earliest references to peanut butter can be traced to Aztec and Inca civilizations, who ground roasted peanuts into a paste. However, several people can be credited with the invention of modern peanut butter and the processes involved in making it. On of those is Canadian Marcellus Gilmore Edson from Montreal who obtained the first patent for a method of producing peanut butter from roasted peanuts using heated surfaces in 1884. Another is John Harvey Kellogg, known for his line of prepared breakfast cereals, who advocated eating plant foods over meat! But contrary to popular belief, George Washington Carver did NOT invent peanut butter! By the time Carver published his document about peanuts in 1916, many methods of preparation of peanut butter had already been developed or patented!

As a 4th gen Hakka-Indonesian, my taste bud somewhat resembles Peter's a lot. I staunchly prefer to eat Guangdong (Chaozhou, Cantonese and Hakka in that specific order) cuisine only when I visit China. To say it politely, I don't find non-Guangdong dishes all that appetizing or at least to my taste. I'm not even all that fond of Fujian cuisine in China. Eating similar version of it in Singapore and Malaysia is of course a whole different story. It just tastes so much better than in China for some unexplainable reasons. My cousin, a Guangzhou native used to live in Beijing. She took us to dinner a few times there. Guess where she took us to repeatedly along with her parents? Hongkong-style Cantonese and Hakka restaurants. I guess I'm not the only one who shares the view that Guangdong cuisine reigns supreme ;).

In Malaysia , I think cooking taste might be adapted as many ingredients could not be found in the early days of migration and work. Also inter ( dialect) marriages might have mish mash some food originality. Can say Malaysia is more “cosmopolitan” so they are proudly known as Malaysian Chinese or just Malaysian to others as different races ( Indian, Malay and others) with their own different dialect groups merged over time.

fantastic topic today. Peter's reaction is the same as my first try the douzi, and miancha. Hey Amy just take a adventure of the restaurant called "了能菜" which means bizarre food, in downtown Guangzhou. I could take you there, if you wish. That will surprise the youtube viewers LOL.

The tea soup reminds me of Cantonese milk puddings, Zhuang Nai or Shuang Pi Nai. Having a Cantonese Chinese background, the only food I really liked when visiting Beijing was duck. I didn't know about these other dishes but really not feeling any FOMO.

*@**6:00**:* It must be because in this case, the *culinary appellation "茶"* does not mean "tea", but rather *"congee" or "porridge".* It seems to only cause confusion from the phonetic limitations of Mandarin / standard Chinese. As a *Vietnamese* speaker, that makes more sense to me, because you can sound out the *two word variants* from that same word: where *"trà"* indicates *"tea"* , but *"chè"* describes a *"porridge-like dessert".*

wait... we do have salty soy milk in the south. instead of adding sugar, we add zhacai, scallions, tiny dried krill(xiapi), and i think a touch of vinegar to get the soy milk to curdle. although it's available in Hong Kong, it's more of a Shanghainese breakfast comfort food. i love savory foods, so i'd love to try that Beijing style tofu brains so much.

I’m aware of that and I believe this dish would be available in Al the big cities in China. But it is to know that this style of savory soy milk comes from Shanghai and that’s still different from the Beijing ones.
