Interactive Food Experience - Discover China with Ease

An interactive Chinese food experience — flavor DNA, breakfast map, cultural downloads, and seed adoption.

Flavor DNA · What We Measure

Eight axes: spice (aroma vs. heat), umami (broth vs. fermentation), aroma notes (floral / herbal / caramel), texture (springy / tender / crisp / glutinous), spice palette, breakfast grain, ritual (shared table / plating / slow dining), and curiosity.

When you crave comfort, do you reach for a clear broth or a fermented kick?
Do you enjoy the tingling of Sichuan peppercorn or the warmth of black pepper?
Breakfast grain of choice on a busy day: rice roll, wheat bun, or millet porridge?

Results include a radar card, 4–6 matching dishes with the “why”, and 2–3 city anchors to explore.

Adopt a Seed · Keep Taste on the Land

From “like” to “guard”. Your adoption funds field revival and keeps knowledge in villages.

Huangjin Rice (Oryza sativa, heritage)
Grown on terraced slopes in northern Guangxi; prized for spring fragrance and festival cakes. Mechanization and hybrid dominance reduced its acreage to 3 villages.
Yesheng Tea Seed (Camellia sinensis var. assamica)
From ancient tea forests on the Yunnan border; seed oil perfumes rural kitchens. Habitat pressure risks old stands.
Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica)
Low-water grain sustaining northern winters; base of porridge and steamed buns. Urbanization shrank growers to a few counties.
