After a few years living in China, most things that amazed/annoyed me during my first months here are now normal events in my life and I don’t think about them too much: kids yelling “hallo”, people staring at me, crowded subways, crazy traffic, Chinese people insisting on speaking English to me even though I reply in Chinese…
在中国生活了几年之后，大多数在我来中国的头几个月里会让我感到烦恼的事情，现在都成了我生活中司空见惯的事情:孩子们大喊“你好”，人们盯着我看，拥挤的地铁，疯狂的交通，即使我用中文回复，中国人仍然坚持对我说英语...
But there is one daily activity that still feels tremendously exciting: going to the supermarket.
但是有一种日常活动让人感到非常兴奋:那就是去超市购物。
My Shanghai-based friend Y. hates going to the supermarket so she orders all of her groceries online and has them delivered home. While this is very convenient and I have sometimes done it (mainly when I was working), I prefer going to the supermarket, walking along every aisle, looking at all the products on display. touching everything and comparing prices before finally making my mind up.
我在上海的朋友Y.讨厌去超市，所以她选择在网上订购所有的日用品，然后让人送货到家。虽然这很方便，而且我有时也这样做(主要是在工作的时候)，但我更喜欢去超市，逛完每一条过道，看看展示的所有商品。在我最终下定决心之前，我每一样都会看一下，然后比较价格。
C. is not very happy about this. He doesn’t like crowded places and supermarkets are invariably full of people, specially during weekends. So when I go with him, I try to get everything as fast as I can. If I go alone, I will take my time.
C.对此不是很高兴。他不喜欢拥挤的地方，而超市总是挤满了人，特别是在周末。所以当我和他一起去的时候，我会尽可能快地买完所有的东西。但如果我是一个人去，我会慢慢地逛。
There are several supermarkets in our area. Some of them are pretty Chinese but we also have a couple of imported foods supermarkets (expensive, of course!). The closest biggest supermarket is Auchan, called 欧尚 oushang in Chinese. A few weeks ago I went there in the morning, so it wouldn’t be too crowded, and wandered around for a couple of hours, mainly taking pictures with my phone. Because there are a lot of weird and amazing things in Chinese supermarkets.
我们所在的地区有几家超市。其中一些是中国超市，但也有一些进口食品超市(当然价格很贵！)。最近最大的超市是Auchan，中文叫做欧尚超市。几个星期前，我选择在早上去了那里，这样就不会太拥挤。我在那里逛了几个小时，主要是在用我的手机拍照，因为在中国的超市里有很多奇怪和令人惊奇的东西。
– Dozens of different flavours for instant noodles
1.方便面有几十种不同的口味
I think I had eaten instant noodles a couple of times before coming to China. Spanish people don’t eat them frequently (I’d say only poor students would try them), but they can be found in supermarkets, although the variety is not great. In China, instant noodles are a must when you are a student and don’t have money to buy better food (or you prefer spending it on other things, like alcohol and cigarrettes). Instant noodles are also widely eaten when you are traveling, specially during train journeys. In this supermarket there is a whole aisle full of different brands and flavours, ranging from spicy beef to seafood.
– Dried everything
4.所有的东西都能做成干货
Chinese people love munching dried stuff: fish, squid, meat, fruits… Basically anything can be dried and sold in supermarkets!
中国人喜欢吃干货:鱼、鱿鱼、肉、水果...基本上任何东西的干货都可以在超市里买到！
– Rice in bulk
5.散装大米
Chinese people eat a lot of rice, so the bags for sale in supermarkets are huge. If you don’t eat much rice, your only option is to buy imported ones in smaller packages (expensive!) or buy in bulk whatever amount you need. The downside to this is that probably everyone in the supermarket has touched your rice: people love sinking their hands in the containers!
中国人要吃很多大米，所以超市里卖的都是大袋的大米。如果你吃的大米不多，你唯一的选择就是购买小包装的进口大米(那会很贵！)或者购买散装大米，需要多少就买多少。不过这样做的缺点是，可能超市里的每个人的手都接触过你的大米:人们喜欢把手伸进容器里！
There are many more things I didn’t take pictures of. The crazy flavours of potato chips (lobster, cucumber,Italian beef…), the thousands of different cookies, the glass jars with strange sauces I’ve never tried, the cooking oils made from many different things (in Spain we just use olive and sunflower oil)… I discover new things with every visit to the supermarket!
还有很多东西我没有拍下来。各种口味的薯片(龙虾、黄瓜、意大利牛肉...)，成千上万种不同的饼干，装有我从未尝试过的奇怪酱汁的玻璃罐子，用许多不同的东西制成的烹饪油(在西班牙，我们只吃橄榄油和葵花籽油)...每次去超市，我都会发现新的东西！
What about you? Do you like going to buy groceries in person or do you prefer buying everything online? If you have lived in more than one country, do you find supermarkets very different in each place?
你呢？你喜欢亲自去超市购物还是喜欢在网上购物？如果你在不止一个国家生活过，你是否发现每个国家的超市都有很大的不同呢？

I like my food to be dead, I saw momzilla killing shrimps, and even though they were awfully delicious I felt kinda bad and I can’t imagine I would have to do it myself. don’t need a super fresh product ;)
我喜欢我的食物是死的，我看到过motzilla杀虾，尽管它们非常美味，我还是觉得有点不舒服，我无法想象我必须自己亲自动手。我想我不需要超级新鲜的食品。
Marta
Haha, yes, I feel the same. I never buy anything alive in the supermarket, I wouldn’t be able to kill it myself.Sometimes we have been to restaurants where you choose shrimps, clams and other seafood from water tanks and boil them in a little hot pot in your table… Poor things.
哈哈，是的，我也有同感。我从来不在超市里买活的东西，更别提亲自杀死它们了。有时候我们会去餐馆，在那里你可以从水箱里挑选活的虾、蛤和其他海鲜，然后把它们放进桌上的小火锅里煮熟...好可怜。
Ri
Wow! I don’t know what I was expecting, but I *wasn’t* expecting live toads, or large containers of rice :o I wonder why there are so many different types of sanitary products? Even in Japan there aren’t that manyーbut similar to China, tampons are not popular.I prefer buying groceries in person for the most part, as, like you, I like taking my time (if it’s not crowded). Supermarkets are definitely quite different wherever you go. In Sweden there’s usually a fresh baked bread areaーand the meat section (depending on where you live) often has deer, moose, rabbit, reindeer etc, depending on the season. What are the opening hours like? Are they open late, or even 24hrs?
我不知道我期待买到什么，但是我没有想过买活蟾蜍，或者大袋的大米。我想知道为什么有这么多不同品种的卫生巾？即使在日本也没有那么多，但和中国一样，卫生棉条在日本也并不受欢迎。我更喜欢亲自去超市买东西，因为像你一样，我喜欢慢慢逛(如果不挤的话)。无论你去哪个国家，超市都是完全不同的。在瑞典，通常有一个新鲜的面包区和肉类区，通常有鹿肉、驼鹿肉、兔肉、驯鹿肉等，这取决于季节和你住在哪里。中国超市的营业时间是怎样的？他们营业到很晚，甚至是24小时营业吗？
Marta
Here it is very difficult finding good bread! Chinese bakeries suck…For supermarkets I think the opening hours are 10 am to 10 pm. For 24 hours shopping we have Family Mart and a medium size supermarket chain called Vanguard.
在这里很难找到好的面包！中国的面包店不怎么样...我想超市的开放时间是上午10点到晚上10点，不过全家和中型连锁超市华润万家是全天营业的。
Karolyn
I enjoyed this – I lived in China about ten years ago, and seeing your photos brings back memories of the supermarkets in Dalian.
我很喜欢这篇文章。我大约十年前住在中国，看到你的照片让我想起了大连的超市。
Marta
I’ve never been to Dalian! But I guess supermarkets look the same all over the country :D
我从来没有去过大连！但是我想全国各地的超市看起来都一样，哈哈。
CrazyChineseFamily
Chinese supermarkets are some love and hate thing for me. I absolutely hate the meat section and alive animals as well as the terrible smell which is coming from the fruit area where the durians are being kept but I love most of the rest.After seeing these pictures I really feel like going to China again, kind of weird though that I start to feel like visiting a country again after seeing supermarket pics…
我对中国的超市又爱又恨。我非常讨厌肉类区和活的动物，以及来自水果区的榴莲的难闻气味，但我喜欢其他的部分。看过这些照片后，我真的很想再去一次中国，虽然有点奇怪，但是在看过你拍的超市的照片后，我又开始想去中国了。
Marta
Thanks for your comments Fabian! And let’s not talk about the “things which shouldn’t be there”… Either I have an iron stomach or I have been very lucky until now :D
谢谢你的评论，法比安！我们不要谈论“那些不应该存在的东西”...要么我有一个铁胃，要么我直到现在一直非常幸运，哈哈。
R Zhao
Fabian makes some good points. I also think it depends where you buy imported stuff. I’ve actually had pretty good experiences using taobao.
法比安提出了一些很好的观点。我还认为这取决于你在哪里购买进口产品。事实上，我在淘宝上有过不错的购物体验。
Marta
Oh yes, Philippine dried mangoes are cheaper in taobao than when you buy them in the Philippines… hahaha.However I had a bad experience buying food on taobao recently so I am a little bit reticent. We bought a large bag of dog food and after a few weeks I was shocked to see that there were a lot of worms in the bottom on the bag!!! I took pictures and we sent to the vendor, guess what his reply was, nothing at all, he completely ignored us. Luckily our dog didn’t have any problem, but I don’t know for how many days she was eating those worms as I don’t know if there were all over the bag or just in the second half :(
是的，菲律宾干芒果在淘宝上的售价比在菲律宾买还要便宜...哈哈哈。然而，我最近在淘宝上买食物的经历很糟糕。我们买了一大袋狗粮，几个星期后，我震惊地发现在袋子的底部有很多虫子！我拍了照片，然后把照片发给了那个商贩，但猜猜他的回复是什么，什么也没有，他完全无视了我。幸运的是我们的狗没出任何问题，但是我不知道它吃了多少天的虫子，因为我不知道是整个袋子里都有虫子，还是只是在下半部分有。
R Zhao
That is terrible! Poor puppy. Coincidently, I just had my first bad experience buying food on taobao, too (right after I commented, the irony!!). It’s the first time in a year, so I guess that’s not so bad. But it’s important to be careful.
太可怕了！可怜的小狗。巧合的是，我刚刚经历了我第一次在淘宝上买食物的糟糕经历(就在我发表评论之后，真是讽刺！).这是一年来的第一次，所以我想从这个角度上来说还不算太糟。但是还是小心为上。
elenimichelle
Hello Kitty sanitary pads? :o haha. I’m a huge Hello Kitty fan! haha. I wouldn’t be too surprised if I asked my boyfriend to do the shopping and he bought me that lol… And the rice in bulk! haha. My mom would love that :P We eat rice almost every day lol.
Hello Kitty牌卫生巾？哈哈。我是HelloKitty的超级粉丝。如果我让我的男朋友去购物，他给我买了那个牌子的卫生巾，还有散装大米，我不会太惊讶！哈哈。而且我妈妈会喜欢的，因为我们几乎每天都吃米饭。
Marta
You can get a complete Hello Kitty outfit, accesories, home appliances, etc when you come to Asia :D There’s even an egg boiling machine…
当你来到亚洲，你可以买到全套的HelloKitty服装、饰品和家用电器等等，甚至还包括煮蛋器...
R Zhao
I was thinking about this recently. It’s strange what you can find entire aisles of in Chinese supermarkets vs. American ones. In the US,, we have an aisle for cereal and oatmeal. We also have one for soda (soft drinks) which I’ve noticed is now becoming the norm China too. When I first came to China there was a rather limited variety of soda and juices but now you can find all sorts of crazy flavors.
我最近一直在想这个问题。奇怪的是，你可以在中国的超市和美国的超市中找到完全类似的过道。在美国，我们有一条过道专卖麦片和燕麦片。我们还有一种苏打水(软饮料)，我注意到这种饮料现在也正在成为中国的标准。当我第一次来到中国时，这里的苏打水和果汁种类很有限，但现在你可以找到各种各样的口味。
Marta
Oh yes, in Spain we also have a greater sextion of cereals, but Chinese people don’t eat them that much. They don’t drink so much milk either. (And Chinese produced milk sold in China is double the price of Spanish produced milk sold in Spain!).
哦，是的，在西班牙我们有更多的谷类食品，但是中国人不怎么吃。他们也不怎么喝牛奶。(在中国销售的中国品牌牛奶的价格是在西班牙销售的西班牙品牌牛奶价格的两倍！)
R Zhao
When I first came to China, there wasn’t much of a sextion of milk or yogurt, but they keep growing in popularity. It’s nothing compared to my home state in the US (known as “The Dairy State”). We have an incredible sextion of milks, cheeses, yogurts, and butter, etc. I miss that stuff a lot, though it’s probably better that I don’t eat it that much anymore.
当我第一次来到中国时，这里没有多少牛奶或酸奶品牌可供选择，但它们现在越来越受欢迎。当然，与我的家乡美国(被称为“乳制品之国”)相比，这算不了什么。我们有各种各样的牛奶、奶酪、酸奶、黄油等等。我非常怀念那些东西，尽管我不再吃那些可能会更好。
Suigetsu
Hey Marta, do you know whether Chinese people actually like milk but don’t drink much of it because not much of it is available? I heard that the Chinese are starting to drink milk and consume dairy in general in greater quantities, and this has created an economic boom for dairy-producing countries like New Zealand.Incidentally, I recently learned that not only does milk do nothing for bone health but it actually contributes to bone loss, which is why osteoporosis is more prent in Western countries with high dairy consumption compared to Asian countries where people don’t consume much dairy and are mostly lactose intolerant.
嘿，玛塔，你知道中国人是真的不喜欢喝牛奶，还是因为没有多少牛奶，所以不怎么喝吗？我听说中国人开始大量喝牛奶和食用奶制品，这给新西兰等奶制品生产国带来了经济繁荣。顺便说一句，我最近了解到，牛奶不仅对骨骼健康没有任何作用，实际上还会导致骨质流失，这就是为什么骨质疏松症在奶制品消费量高的西方国家比亚洲国家更为普遍，而亚洲国家的人们并不消费太多的奶制品，因为他们大多是乳糖不耐症患者。
Marta
Milk is widely available, from both domestic and foreign brands. However due to the frequent food scandals (the most famous one being the tainted baby formula back in 2008) most people prefer buying imported milk. I have seen and bought imported milk from New Zealand, France, Germany…And I think yes, Chinese people are drinking more milk, specially young people.I have also read that drinking milk is not too good. These past years I started drinking soy milk, and recently I tried almond milk (not bad!).
国内外品牌的牛奶随处可见。然而，由于频繁发生的食品丑闻(最著名的是2008年的受污染婴儿配方奶粉事件)，大多数人更喜欢购买进口牛奶。我看到人们购买了从新西兰，法国，德国进口的牛奶...我想是的，中国人开始更多的喝牛奶，特别是年轻人。我还读到过，喝牛奶不太好。所以在过去的几年里，我开始喝豆奶，最近我尝试喝了杏仁奶(感觉还不错！)
perfectlysassybread
Hmnn, there are some small vanguards, but just next to where I live there is a big one, maybe I like it cos’ it’s close hahaxd Metro is great, unfortunately quite far away :)
华润万家都很小，但是在我住的地方旁边有一个大的，也许我喜欢它就是因为它很近，哈哈。麦德龙很棒，但很不幸，它离我住的地方很远。
TooChineseForU
I LOVE Chinese supermarkets because of their variety! Like you said there is so many sextions for feminine sanitary products, and there is huge sextion for noodles, chips, dried stuff. Since studying abroad in Shanghai, I feel so limited in the US with only 4-5 brands of any given thing. I’m looking forward to more supermarket adventures when I go back to China in a few weeks!Talking about variety, isn’t it fascinating how the 7-11 stores or even McDonald’s ice cream sextion is far better in China than it is in the US or other western places?
我喜欢中国的超市，因为它们品种繁多！就像你说的，女性卫生巾有很多选择，面条、薯条和干货也有很多选择。自从在上海留学以来，我觉得在美国购物太受限制了，因为所有东西都只有4-5个品牌。我期待着几个星期后回到中国的时候能有更多的超市让我去探索！说到多样性，中国的7-11甚至麦当劳的冰淇淋的可选择性都远远好于美国或其他西方国家，这难道不令人着迷吗？
Marta
We don’t really have those convenience stores in Spain so I can’t compare, haha. You’re coming back? To stay or for holidays? ;)
我们在西班牙没有那些便利店，所以我没法比较，哈哈。你会回来吗？是留下还是度假？
TooChineseForU
I’m coming back to Teach English in Jinan.. As well as make my obligatory visit back to Shanghai to visit some Chinese friends. I’m excited!
我要回济南教英语。同时我还必须回上海拜访一些中国朋友。我太兴奋了！
marina
i would like to sell food products from russia. where should i do it?
我想卖俄罗斯的食品，我应该怎么做？
Marta
I don’t really know the procedures as I have never done it, but I guess the easiest would be to open an online shop in Taobao.
我真的不知道，因为我从来没有这样做过，但我想最简单的方法是在淘宝开一家网店。

I heard that the Chinese are starting to drink milk and consume dairy in general in greater quantities, and this has created an economic boom for dairy-producing countries like New Zealand.Incidentally, I recently learned that not only does milk do nothing for bone health but it actually contributes to bone loss, which is why osteoporosis is more prent in Western countries with high dairy consumption compared to Asian countries where people don’t consume much dairy and are mostly lactose intolerant.
嘿，玛塔，你知道中国人是真的不喜欢喝牛奶，还是因为没有多少牛奶，所以不怎么喝吗？我听说中国人开始大量喝牛奶和食用奶制品，这给新西兰等奶制品生产国带来了经济繁荣。顺便说一句，我最近了解到，牛奶不仅对骨骼健康没有任何作用，实际上还会导致骨质流失，这就是为什么骨质疏松症在奶制品消费量高的西方国家比亚洲国家更为普遍，而亚洲国家的人们并不消费太多的奶制品，因为他们大多是乳糖不耐症患者。

Milk is widely available, from both domestic and foreign brands. However due to the frequent food scandals (the most famous one being the tainted baby formula back in 2008) most people prefer buying imported milk. I have seen and bought imported milk from New Zealand, France, Germany…And I think yes, Chinese people are drinking more milk, specially young people.I have also read that drinking milk is not too good. These past years I started drinking soy milk, and recently I tried almond milk (not bad!).
国内外品牌的牛奶随处可见。然而，由于频繁发生的食品丑闻(最著名的是2008年的受污染婴儿配方奶粉事件)，大多数人更喜欢购买进口牛奶。我看到人们购买了从新西兰，法国，德国进口的牛奶...我想是的，中国人开始更多的喝牛奶，特别是年轻人。我还读到过，喝牛奶不太好。所以在过去的几年里，我开始喝豆奶，最近我尝试喝了杏仁奶(感觉还不错！)

华润万家都很小，但是在我住的地方旁边有一个大的，也许我喜欢它就是因为它很近，哈哈。麦德龙很棒，但很不幸，它离我住的地方很远。

I LOVE Chinese supermarkets because of their variety! Like you said there is so many sextions for feminine sanitary products, and there is huge sextion for noodles, chips, dried stuff. Since studying abroad in Shanghai, I feel so limited in the US with only 4-5 brands of any given thing. I’m looking forward to more supermarket adventures when I go back to China in a few weeks!Talking about variety, isn’t it fascinating how the 7-11 stores or even McDonald’s ice cream sextion is far better in China than it is in the US or other western places?
我喜欢中国的超市，因为它们品种繁多！就像你说的，女性卫生巾有很多选择，面条、薯条和干货也有很多选择。自从在上海留学以来，我觉得在美国购物太受限制了，因为所有东西都只有4-5个品牌。我期待着几个星期后回到中国的时候能有更多的超市让我去探索！说到多样性，中国的7-11甚至麦当劳的冰淇淋的可选择性都远远好于美国或其他西方国家，这难道不令人着迷吗？

We don’t really have those convenience stores in Spain so I can’t compare, haha. You’re coming back? To stay or for holidays? ;)
我们在西班牙没有那些便利店，所以我没法比较，哈哈。你会回来吗？是留下还是度假？

I don’t really know the procedures as I have never done it, but I guess the easiest would be to open an online shop in Taobao.
我真的不知道，因为我从来没有这样做过，但我想最简单的方法是在淘宝开一家网店。
