Does eating when watching videos affect our diets?

A spoonful of pickles (榨菜) can sometimes make a meal taste better. These days, a new type of pickle 1 (discuss): “digital pickled vegetables”. It refers 2 the videos people watch when eating that make their food more appetizing.

The topic received more than 16 million clicks on Sina Weibo and about 100,000 people participated in the discussion.

【推荐2】What roles do your parents play in your family? 1 But in modern families, mothers have their own careers, and fathers also help out when it comes to doing household chores and taking care of the kids.

This is probably why recently, the slogan “Loved by kids, approved by mums” on a brand of cereal (麦片粥) from US company Kellogg’s led to a heated discussion online. Some US campaign groups complained that the slogan was biased (歧视) against stay-at-home men. 2

Indeed, the roles of men and women have changed over time. As the number of dual-income households increases, more and more men have changed their views on their roles in families, accounting for a more equal distribution of labor between mothers and fathers. And many choose to be stay-at-home dads. 3 They have to struggle with career and childcare, but also face doubts over whether they’re doing enough. “ 4 You’re also measured by how much time you’re able to spend with your kids and how much you’re able to do with your family.” Matt Schneider, co-founder of a US-based network serving for stay-at-home dads, told CBS News.

However, there is no need for stay-at-home fathers to feel cast down. 5 There are always special moments that make it worthwhile for them. “When my son crawls towards me, hugs me and says ‘I love you’, I wonder if he knows what that means.” a stay-at-home dad called Scott Durkin told ABC News. “But you get all … warm inside.”

A．Their hard work is bound to pay off.

B．However, the biggest problem has come.

C．It’s not just about being a paycheck (薪水) father anymore.

D．Before being a father, you are mainly measured by your work.

E．In the past, women were more likely than men to look after family members.

F．Staying at home can hardly help them form a close relationship with their kids.

G．They even charged the company with what they described as “cereal discrimination（歧视）”.
