Chinese food is so profound that even foreigners are impressed by it. However, compared to our domestic orthodox authentic Chinese food, there is a specialized gourmet Chinese food in the United States. American Chinese food is a little different from our perception of Chinese food, more in line with American tastes.

As we all know, American eating habits and tastes and China's gap is still very large, so Chinese food in the United States after the natural modifications. In order to cater to the taste of Americans, Chinese food has changed a lot both in terms of materials and practices. Older Americans like fried food, sauces like sweet and sour, meats favor chicken, and sauces have a strong flavor. This leads to the fact that if you go to the United States, you will find that the American Chinese food dishes, very greasy and sweet, greasy dishes greasy even if, the point is that even the main food did not escape the fate of greasy. The old U.S. seems to have what all love heavy seasoning feeling, American Chinese food fried noodles, really greasy, after eating the box under the shiny.

And what's more, the ingredients used in American Chinese food are different from our common Chinese food. Chinese people love to eat a lot of food is foreigners do not understand, such as the most common pig's feet, chicken claws, fish head, this kind of inherent in the foreigner's perception, is definitely the existence of the edge. Or we love to eat chicken and duck blood, offal, if you do a good job on the table, foreigners are expected to fight with you. The most intuitive effect of this is that the most popular dishes in American Chinese food are more common and simple in the eyes of the Chinese, such as? Chicken Zuo Zongtang? Sweet and Sour Pork? Fried Chicken? etc. You can't say it's not good, it's just that these dishes really don't highlight the underpinnings of Chinese cuisine, and are more of a taste pander.

However, American Chinese food is really popular in the United States, and Chinese food is often seen in American dramas. The difference between American Chinese food and traditional Chinese food is still quite big, but the food and drink thing, itself, will be changed because of local tastes change, so it is also hoped that through the American Chinese food more people can know Chinese food, so as to taste the real Chinese food.
