Abstract

The documentary A Bite of China is not only a luxurious enjoyment for senses, it is also a peerless masterpiece to propagate Chinese food culture. It includes massive Taoist ideas, such as the food aesthetics of simplicity and elegance, food philosophy of heaven-man unity, dietary function of human harmony and food consumption concepts of "more thrifty, less luxury", and "more simplicity, less desire". The interpretation means a lot to the sustainable development of the society.
