One particularly picky young woman dumped her boyfriend of a year after being served food at his parents' house which she considered to be 'too humble' for her tastes.
In a forum post on Chinese social media, the 27-year old woman, calling herself 'Xiang shuo you shuo bu chu kou', admitted to leaving her partner after visiting her in-laws over Chinese New Year, according to a report by People's Daily Online.
Upon seeing the dishes the parents - who are from Jiangxi province, southeast China had served up, the comparatively wealthy woman from Shanghai said she was 'shocked' and decided it was time to call it a day on their relationship.
Public rant: A woman from Shanghai said she was shocked by the meal she had at her boyfriend's rural family in a online post
Quote:
'I have a boyfriend and have been dating him for a year. He comes from elsewhere [other than Shanghai]. He's good at working and has the looks that I like. But he doesn't have a good financial background.'
She continued: 'When I saw their food, I wanted to throw up. It was 100 times worse than what I had imagined. I can't accept it. I can't leave now, there is no transport. I will share a room with his sister tonight and leave the next morning.'
After her post went viral online, the woman surprisingly received support for her plight from some quarters, with many saying she was not expecting too much.

Marrying for status and money continues to provoke heated debates in China, with most arguing that love should be the only factor in the modern age and that other viewpoints are outdated
class issues are a serious problem in some parts of asia, even more than in america, so i believe it and i wouldn't be surprised if she's not the first one to do this. even with how communism was in china (or i guess is, but it doesn't work at all like it used to), this stuff still didn't go away.
mdmdmndmn omg sis!!! that was ruthless I feel bad for him and the family tho she probably ruined their night but I gotta say that food does look hmm interesting what's that?

She could have done it in a more respectful way.
There is no need to break the boy's parents hearts on the ****ing Chinese New Year
