Lai Hui-chuan is important literati in the literature history in Taiwan. In addition, the bamboo poetry written by him outnumbers those written by other literati in Taiwan. Therefore, this paper uses his bamboo poetry, ＂Men Hong Mo Xie＂ and ＂Su Men Hong Mo Xie,＂ as the main research text to investigate the works concerning diet, in order to understand the characteristics of dietary culture exhibited by bamboo poetry. The literature review finds that Lai's diet-related bamboo poetry explores two aspects of natural environment and human activities including ＂natural environment and dietary culture＂ as well as ＂human activities and dietary culture＂. These characteristics of dietary culture reflect the dietary phenomenon in the early days in Taiwan. Many of these characteristics are unique to that period of time and those places. Moreover, these works also make up of the lack of historical data and enable people in Taiwan to better understand the dietary culture of the ancient people in in the past and to analyze the difference between ancient and modern diet. In the end, the dietary style and features described in these works further verify the folk customs, simplicity and realism reflected in bamboo poetry. Furthermore, they also reflect how the poetry of Lai is close to the life of people and the charm hidden inside.
