Director of 'A Bite of China' clears doubts 

A lot of online users say that the humor is a spot-on send-up of the style utilized by "A Bite of China".

"It seems not that difficult to copy," was a common theme in the comments on Sina Weibo.

"It grasps the gist of the documentary by lifting the instant noodles to a level of culture and linking the food with the memory," a netizen named Xiaoyouduola says.

Another user Cheng Jiaming posted: "They made the plain instant noodles gaoduan (high-end), daqi (elegant), shangdangci (classy) and seemingly tasteful. Maybe ‘A Bite of China’ should recruit them in the production of the third season."

"It’s not hard to write a good script because everybody can buy a manual of documentaries and learn from it," Chen Xiaoqing, director of "A Bite of China", said in an interview with Beijing Youth Daily.

"The style of A Bite of China has been copied and imitated since season one. And decoding it? It’s absolutely a good thing."
