Best Answer

The Chinese were known for growing their own vegetables, which formed the staple of their diet during the Gold rush in Australia. They kept their own pigs, ducks and poultry which they would kill and eat, ensuring they always had a supply of fresh food. Their diet was far better than that of the Australian miners.
