中国大妈奢侈品店前吃泡面

[Maxim]

Translation

Photographs of Chinese Ayi’s chowing down on instant noodles outside one of the world’s most renowned fashion houses have been doing the rounds on the internet.

The picture was snapped in Florence and uploaded by an Italian web user, causing users to question why people who are rich enough to travel abroad and shop at Gucci are eating instant noodles in the street.

Several Chinese netizens also chimed in, angrily declaring that the middle aged ladies were causing China to lose face abroad, again.

Others said that they understand the aunties’ point of view and that they probably couldn’t handle the Italian food (because Italian food is famously disgusting).

This topic is particularly sensitive among Chinese netizens as bad Chinese tourist behaviour abroad has attracted global headlines in recent months.

Other incidents include Chinese tourists getting banned from a temple in Thailand for defecating in urinals and stealing toilet paper: incidents that were meticulously and almost gleefully reported by Hong Kong media.

I am not a fan of PRCs (they're disgusting creatures), but lets give them the benefit of the doubt. They may not like Italian food.

Even if one love Italian wine and food you cannot be eating it everyday and sometimes long for a simple cup of noodle. Bloody racist Italians.

Everyone has their likes and dislikes, and even though Italian food is disgusting, Pizza is the most likely possibility to become the world's staple food. With close competition from Yankee burger. There may soon be Pizza with Char Siew toppings.

Cheers!
