Welcome to Beijing: "Have You Eaten Yet?"

A quick stroll around Beijing would have most Americans questioning their ears and stomachs. Rather than saying “How’s it going” or “How you doing," many Chinese typically greet each other by saying “Have you eaten yet?”

The connection between food and community will also be obvious to many of the 17,000 athletes in the Olympic Village, where up to 6,000 meals will be served simultaneously over the course of the games.

Wherever we are in the world, food definitely brings us together. So have you eaten yet?
