I have never had chinese food ever!?

Question

In my 18 years of life I have never had or even tried Chinese Food!! I am absolutely grossed out by it!! I dont eat like regular ppl...

Anyways what is chinese food like? is it yummy in your tummy or is it gross?

Answer 1

ha im 24 and I don't eat it either...I always think they will give me dog or something. And the names even scare me ha!

The only kind I really eat is fortune cookies! I love reading them!!!

Answer 2

chinese food is probably my favorite type besides mexican. there is a lot of different variety and you can find something to tickle anyones fancy!!

Answer 3

It's good.... I'm sure you have ate something which is chinese just not out a chinese shop before.

Chicken fried rice, chips and curry, special curry, prawn crackers, chow mein, ribs, chicken balls loads of other stuff

Answer 4

My ex-wife and my brother in law felt the same way until we took them to a Chinese restaurant in Long Beach. Now, it's their favorite food. Try it once, and I guarantee you'll be back for more.

Answer 5

Some yummy some gross, then again I'm chinese so I might be biased.

Try the regular fares, like bbq pork or the seafood hotpot, different types of chow mein.  Stay away from the more exotic types, heck I don't even eat those things like chicken feet and ducks tongue...well actually I've had duck's tongue.

There are many different regions in China also, and each region has different methods of cooking.  The northern area, Beijing for example, is more bland, in contrast Canton has very bold flavors.  Szechwan usually has spicy food.

What do you usually eat?  I have to add, I do have a friend who is a first generation chinese american, who doesn't like chinese food.  She'll eat it if she has to, but she won't do it voluntarily.

Answer 6

I love Chinese, especially the vegetable lo mein- I always order that.  But I don't love it so much now that I'm pregnant.  I had a craving for it, and totally regretted it later.

Answer 7

yummyyyyy

go to  panda inn

Answer 8

Some of it I like, like chicken terriaki, but if you are sorta picky like me, than don't eat extensive foods like octopus, or crab. China eats differently than us because there are far more people than in the US, and they HAVE to eat the things that you wouldn't usually eat. If you haven't ever eaten Chinese food in your whole life, than you probably won't like it.

Answer 9

I really don't like Chinese food, largely cause I'm not a huge fan of a lot of vegetables that are used in Asian cuisine, and also, because I really don't like the combination of sweet sauces with my meat and vegetables, which also eliminates a huge number of Chinese dishes.

One North American Chinese food that i do enjoy a bunch are beef won tons... yum... deep fried meat is delicious!

But seriously, why worry about it? Everyone has some foods that they don't like, and really most take-out Chinese food isn't very good for you anyways.

Answer 10

You are missing out!  I love Chinese food and only know 2 people that don't care for it.

Answer 11

You're just another typical American who looks at a delicious Chinese dish and says "ewww.." I hate people like you! I know too many- they're so annoying! It is great. It's 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999... times better than any 'great' hamburger, pizza, or french fries you'll ever have in your whole life. American food tastes like c**p and makes too many Americans stupid, fat, and lazy. Oh, tell your friends to stop complaining about MSG, please- it's no worse than the salt that you smother your french fries in.

Answer 12

definately yummy for tummy,you dont know what you are missing.

Answer 13

It's good.  Try it some time.

Answer 14

depends on what youget..most of it is good though!

Answer 15

Your missing out..it's very good.

Answer 16

Chinese food is great even if it is cat or dog, get the Bourbon Chicken or Pepper Steak.

Answer 17

it is very good food.

Answer 18

I think you're grossed out by it because you've only ever seen cheap chinese food. You don't even need to go to a highclass restaurant but a medium priced restaurant.

First of all when you eat Chinese food, you know you'll be full for awhile.

It gives you a warm feeling inside and you can share it.

Generally, the flavours are subtle and you're not really sure what spices they use, but the food is usually slightly sweet or spicy or a little salty but not overly so.

One thing you need to bear in mind is that the taste of Chinese food varies from country to country.

So go out there and order some Chinese. I recommend the SubGum WarBar. Its cool to look at before you eat it.

Answer 19

d**n, chinese is the best food.  chow mein of many sort is good, just so much to pick from but an oh so small plate. Hmm you never wanna see me at a chinese all you can eat place. haha you better sever up fast before i get through thouse doors.

Answer 23

I thinks its the best.  I like the teryaki chicken with rice.  I dont like the vegetbles though.

Answer 24

My dad owns a Chinese Food Place you should try Chinese food you won't know how it tastes like until you try. Most Americans at the restaurant order Sesame Chicken it takes Pretty good or you can just try the plain Chicken and Broccoli. =] Hope you like it.

Answer 25
