Now it's Chinese food that's bad for you! I'm especially sad that they singled out my family's favorite, General Tso's Chicken. And how about this:
This report slams Chinese food for both high sodium and high calorie content. What's critically missing is any mention of portion size. I don't know anyone who thinks that the plates they serve you at Chinese restaurants were meant to be consumed by one person, and I'm sure both the calorie and the sodium numbers would look much better if analyzed for reasonably-sized portions. Eating less makes a lot more sense than following this advice: "[Stay] away from duck sauce, hot mustard, hoisin sauce, and soy sauce." Could you then still call it Chinese food???[E]ating an order of lemon chicken, which is battered and then deep-fried, is like eating three fried McDonald's McChicken sandwiches then washing them down with a 32-oz. Coke.
