1, didn't eat too much:
Too much refers to foods that are too greasy, too strong and particularly irritating. Confucius believes that diet should be light but not salty, clear but not light, and maintain moderate taste and flavor, which is beneficial to health.
2, do not eat broad beans:
Broad beans are rich in oxalic acid and carcinogen fluorescein, which can easily lead to poisoning and liver cancer. So Confucius advised people not to eat broad beans, so as not to endanger health.
3, don't eat dog meat and horse meat:
In ancient times, although dog meat and horse meat can be regarded as a kind of food, they were considered by Confucius to be inedible. These two kinds of meat are regarded by Confucius as symbols of nobility, loyalty, strength and wisdom, so they should not be slaughtered for human consumption.
4. Do not eat rabbit meat, venison, yellowbird and fox;
Confucius believes that rabbits, deer, yellowbirds and foxes are gentle and kind animals and should be respected and protected instead of being killed for food. In addition, the meat quality of these animals is also easy to cause discomfort and some physical problems, so they should be eaten carefully or avoided.
Expand knowledge:
Although Confucius' Eight Dishes have certain historical value and cultural significance, they are no longer applicable to everyone in modern society. In today's society, people's eating habits and lifestyles have undergone great changes. Some people even choose to eat broad beans, rabbit meat and other foods, which are not absolutely harmful to health.
Confucius (5565438 BC+April 479 BC165438 BC+479 BC), surnamed Kong, was born in Taocheng, Lu in the Spring and Autumn Period, and his ancestral home (now Xiayi County, Henan Province). He was a great thinker in ancient China.
Therefore, when choosing a diet, you should choose according to your own needs and habits, and also pay attention to the hygiene and safety of food to ensure your health and safety.
