[@genghuang1460]

Although Hanzhong is located in Shaanxi Province, it is divided by the Qinling Mountains from the capital Xi'an, and its culture is closer to Sichuan in the south west China. People there speak Sichuan dialect and food there like Sichuan cuisine with more spicy

[@lyhthegreat]

yeah that is also where the han dynasty got its name.

[@salvatorenostrade3331]

​@SnarkyMcsnarkles24 To be fair if you're American (I am) we've fucked up our food big time too. The FDA is constantly approving super shady chemicals along with giving us essentially death potions in the form of energy drinks. I'd say the reason why gutter oil is so prevalent to us Westerners I'd a mixture of propaganda and China's population density being so high. Hence we can see more cases of malpractice than here in the West.

As a local who once lived in Hanzhong for about 20 years, Hanzhong is known as "The birthplace of the Han Chinese, the treasure trove of China", which shows its long lasting history and excellent natural conditions. Located between Qingling and the great Ba mountain ranges, it is named as the "Little Yangtze-South City" in the Northwestern part of China. Hanzhong is considered to be a critical city for sectional dynasties of ancient China. So glad to have Mark in Hanzhong, love from HK！❤❤❤

There’s no way he finishes all the dishes he eats. Or he fasts between video post. Maybe has a “team” or a friend he shares dishes with. I say that because it makes no sense to me either.
