Chinese Food

maybe a dumb question but could someone explain to me if chinese food is in fact bad for you? if so that really sucks i love me some general tso's chicken ..
 
There's a ton of sugar and fat in chinese food and general tso - it's breaded and deep fried then drowned in a sugar sauce.
 
Just depends on what you eat exactly I think. I went to a chinese buffet (it was a good one, half the customers were asians). . . and ate baked teriyaki Chicken, baked salmon, roast beef, bbq squid, lots of mussels, lots of shrimp, a few fried shrimp even, ah I forget what it was there was some more fish in there somewhere, snow crab, baked crab meat...etc. . . none of that stuff is too bad, just lots of protein.

And asian style foods can be healthy so long as it's brown rice and vegetables and meat, and light on the sugar sauce =)
 
alot of sugars, salts and no protein in most chinese food. i used to work at one and would always try not to eat at work.
 
make your own general tsos..you can get reduced sugar sauce, cook the chicken a healthier way, etc. still not that great for you, but a hell of a lot better then chinese take out.

otherwise, get the chicken grilled without oil with brocolli ;x
 
IF you need to get fast food a fast chinese restaurant, you can always just ask them for steamed chicken with brown rice, maybe get a little a brown sauce on the side, holler
 
REAL, authentic Chinese food is wonderful health food compared to the typical US diet.

brown rice, steamed in season veggies, portions of steamed or stir-fried protein, tofu, ect. They don't eat dessert and they drink green tea and room temperature water.

Kind of boring but totally healthy!

It's the Americanized Chinese food you have to watch! All that fried stuff and waayyy too much sugary sauces. My in-laws make fun of the stuff Americans call Chinese food.

This is what I have them do. Steamed shrimp or chicken. I'm just wondering how healthy the chicken is that they use.
 
Just make sure you have a fried banana and coconut ice cream before you call it quits!

there is a wide variety of chineese feed. i do some serous eating at the buffet and what i eat is 100% quality food. general tso's chicken is usually fatty chicken breaded with white rice flour fried in a bad oil. the sauce is 75% honey and about 15% soy sauce so tons of sugar, sodium, and cholesterol. their sauces are what need to be avoided get the beef or chicken on a stick, steamed veggies and sea food with a little white rice. or head there right from the gym pig out on the general tso's pop a dbol and go home and take a nap lol.

this is pretty a good one. i use the bonless breast personally though.
 
Chinese food is bad for you if you eat the shit from Panda Express or any other type of fake Chinese food.

If you eat traditional Chinese food then it is very healthy for you. A Chinese meal consists of mostly vegetables, fish and types of bean curds. Skip the white rice and eat brown rice and it'll be healthy.
 
Yes, I do brown rice in place of white rice and get my shrimp w/ mixed vegtables steamed w/ the sauce on the side.
 
Can't believe this is actually being asked on this site seriously.... chinese is horrible. Co-workers get this all the time and I pretty much stare and laugh at them when they eat it. Nothing good at all in it.

Think about it, the Chinese don't even eat it. Its AMERICAN chinese food, not actual chinese food. They eat allot of shushi, rice and vegetables. Only if our society was as healthy as them..... makes me sick some people these days. Processed and fast foods has destroyed society!

I only ate this shit when I was young, dumn and full of cum! Well I guess I can say I am still all 3 of those still, I just don't eat chinese/fast food anymore LOL
