Also, I now want "Chinese food". Hee hee.

I have actually known for a long time that what we consider Chinese food is not what most Chinese people eat. There's a funny bit in The Bonesetter's Daughter about that, where the woman emigrates from China to work in a friends restaurant and only after living here 3 months does she realize that this weird food is what Americans think Chinese food is.
