white people food is a fad currently in China and it is called "the lunch of suffering" among other things. a Chinese individual trying it said that it is the food of the dead as it reminded them how alive they were.

Of course, not everyone is on board with the trend, and some people couldn’t bear the thought of foregoing flavor and variety. But others found a strange sense of comfort in the blandness of these meals, calling it a reflection of their work experience, and a reminder that the office isn’t a place for enjoying life.
