Salt, sugar and fat.

Anyway, there is plenty of Chinese food that isn't gross. Mapo tofu or fresh spring rolls, for example. You could always try and make fried rice yourself too.

>check yelp to find a good chinese place
>99% of the reviewers are guai los that can't tell bits of chicken from anus ordering kung pao bullshit
someone should make an ethnic yelp so that you get reviews from people that actually know what the food should taste like

OP that shit looks disgusting, Chinese food is delicious, you just have to make it yourself.

Mongolian beef for instance, make it from your own beef with vegetables, limit your own sauce, oil etc. and add only white rice if you want some

It's not amazing for you, but it's a relatively balanced meal besides the added salt/sugar

Most of the shit you get at places like Panda Express and even local Asian places is just frozen with a generic sauce, after trying so many I've realized a lot of places use the same exact sweet and sour sauce especially

Disgusting hipster Vietnamese spring rolls.

>>7785255
But there's naturally occurring MSG in tomatoes and mushrooms and cheese and tons of other foods, why would you single that out??

Has anyone here had fastfood sesame chicken with red sauce?

I used to go to this old hole in the wall place and they made it with cabbage and it was in a red sauce.

Do they still sell those doughey fried balls with the sweet corn? Used to work in sales not far from there, it was about as awful as it was excellent.
>>
>>7785467
No idea, the drive through menu had been smashed to bits so you could only order like 3/5 of what they had. They did have these deep fried crab claw things. They were fucking awesome.

This one was on Antoinne and.... something.

Also from Houston bro, as someone who lives in the heights and has driven to the ghetto for some Timmy Chans, shit, is, fucking, bomb. Heights Asian Cafe is also some good ass real Chinese food.

I know the place, used to live on TC Jester.

Food is food. I enjoy chinese food but I'm saying it's because i like food

chinese food is the most sophisticated cuisine on earth, way older than french. the stuff you have eaten is all garbage. find a restaurant run by the former chef of a hotel in beijing, like i had near me. similar flavors, but just different enough to make you realize what it CAN be. fuck ghetto chinese food like egg foo yung, dry ribs, batterered beef turds, cream cheese rangoons, etc. do not die before eating real chinese food. seriously, travel to china if you have to.

Cantonese Dim Sum is based and not shitty at all. I wish more places would offer it for carry-out.
>>
>>7785735
Chinatown in San Francisco, despite all the durian smelling, opium smoking chinks bustling in the streets, has the best Cantonese dim sum on the west coast. It's effectively ruined panda express for me
>>
>>7785338
Actually no most sauces are made from scratch and food is cooked from raw at panda.
