Initially coming from "ä¸å¥½å" (bù hÇo chÄ«, not tasty), which, when spoken quickly, sound like æ¥å (bà o chÄ«), literally means "newspaper eating". This phrase was an example of Chinese students abroad using homophones to share their true feelings about not delicious food under the circumstance that businesses are able to hide negative reviews on Google Reviews.
-"This soup is awful. How do you think?"
-"I agree with you. This is newspaper eating."
