Epic Meal Time

Of course I was.

That looked pretty damn good until they poured the Four Loko in there. Fuck.

Mildly amusing myself while I shop, throwing around meat? I run this super market, bitch.

EDIT: Yeah, I assumed they would cook with the four loko, just pouring it onto a chili and cheese fries is gross.

The new video isn't loading for me.

Also of interest, there are twice a many Asians per capita in Canada as there are in America, however in San Diego county we have a nearly identical numbers per capita.

Sociology, IDK

Better Chinese food isn't based on average population %, it's based on market acceptance. People in the restaurants I went to seemed to like the food these restaurants were producing. I haven't been to California and tasted Chinese food so I can't refute this. Only that I've had a lot of Chinese food, been all over the states and it's always been trash. /methinks it's a cultural thing. Chinese food isn't good all the time in Canada, but I have a much larger chance of pulling over to an unknown Chinese food restaurant and being served half decent food.

I have always heard great things about New York and the southern west coast of California (San Francisco specifically). Like that they're the best in America for whitey chinese food.

ALSO: we're not getting the "authentic" Chinese food down here because in AMERICA it's illegal (I think) to eat cats and dogs without being told first. Canada doesn't have decency laws.

It is not illegal to sell cat or dog meat in Toronto. Only to be caught actually killing the cat and dog (and even then it's like a mild fine).

I want you to re-read this and then tell me where you fucked up.

If we have more Asian people, wouldn't the market acceptance be higher on average than other parts of the country? There's a reason we have three of the five Mitsuwas in my state, and it's certainly not because there's low market acceptance. As a side note, going into a Mitsuwa makes you feel like your in another country in a way no Mexican market has ever made me feel. It's like a self contained shopping arcade where everyone speaks Japanese and there are no American products. It's also not set up like any other Market I've ever been in, it looks like it's designed exactly like a market from Japan if movies from there are to be believed.

Ordering off-menu in Chinatown > "Chinese" food

I can confirm that.

When I was in San Fran last time we went to a China town for food about four or five times and each time I just asked the waiter what he would get (because the menu made no sense to me) and every time they picked some random shit for me and every time it was amazing.

I like that everyone is defending how they eat Chinese food now.

Everything is a fucking struggle for dominance, even a thread about Chinese food with no central argument.
