You know, I was watching this video of this lecturer, Harry Wong. Anyway, he said that what WE call Chinese food is NOT Chinese food. So that General Tso Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork and the like is NOT really Chinese food.

FYI
When I was in Spain for my study abroad, some friends and I went to a Chinese restaurant. The only thing that was on there that we have here was fried rice. I couldn't believe it!! I had NO CLUE what the stuff on the menu was. And Chinese peeps speaking in spanish freaked me out, lightweight; it's a whole different accent. I got some shrimp fried rice and called it a day. I never went back to that restaurant, and Chinese is my fave.
