Just like rice and noodles are different from bread, snacks in China are a world apart from those in the UK and the US. For one thing, I never imagined that sunflower seeds(瓜子) would be so popular here. I spotted people having them while waiting for tables outside restaurants, before dinner and, of course, while watching TV. I also saw that a plate of sunflower seeds is always on offer during the Spring Festival holidays.

I had seldom tried sunflower seeds when I came to China. In the UK, though, young people love their snacks. In fact, young people in Britain eat more snacks than people of the same age in other European countries. A recent survey has discovered that 64 percent of under 20-year-olds snack between meals, according to an article on the British Council website. In comparison,58.7 percent of young people snack in Germany, 53 percent in France, and only 40.7 percent in Spain.

British snacks are generally unhealthy. Our favorites are probably potato chips, which we call crisps, and chocolate bars. From a very young age, we always looked forward to our crisps and chocolate bars after school, perhaps even included with sandwiches and fruit in our school lunches that our parents made for us.

Snacks are also popular in the US. One of the things that I found the most extraordinary(特别的) when I first visited the US was the number of snacks in their supermarkets; I was surprised to find huge aisles(过道) just for snacks that were bigger than some stores I’d been to in the UK. Snack tastes in the US are much the same as those in the UK, except there’s much more choice —— every kind of fatty, sugary food is available to everyone all the time.

All in all, it’s probably best for your health if you like sunflower seeds rather than potato chips and chocolate. But eating these delicious treats at times couldn’t possibly be wrong, could it?
