Chinese food is basically junk food.
You'd be better off going to McDonalds for all the nutrition it'll give you.

>>7057535
yeah but they don't have rice fried in gutter oil

>>7057542
or as much gluten and msg.

>Chinese food is basically junk food.

Is this meant to be a big revelation? lol, of course it's junk food, everyone knows that. But it's delicious, which is all i care about once a month on a lonely friday or saturday night.

fishball soup is possibly the best dish with round ingredients

round pround world 'round

This is the first time I've seen or heard of these.

My place has a chicken nugget meal for $3.50. It's twice as much food as you'd get at a drive-thru and a few dollars cheaper. It's just frozen food, but I can't always be arsed to deep fry.

Always makes me feel better when I'm having a bad day.

How the hell is this the first time you've heard of chicken balls? Do you not go outside? Are you posting from Syria on a stolen phone?

>>7057960
None of the places around here make them, and I've never seen anyone post about them before.

When i was in america on holiday we ordered in a chinese. I asked for the chicken balls, and when they came they were basically just crispy chicken nuggets. Niggas don't even dip em in batter.

The Chicken balls we used in our restaurant was actually left over chicken skin grinded up with spices and deep fried

We used to give it out for free for order of $20 and up

you actually asked for "chicken balls" like you used those words?
because that is the default way chicken is served in most chinese restaurants

if you want the ones in the thick batter you order sweet and sour chicken, because then its battered for dipping.

that sounds very delicious.
But did you do so with the mind set of "this is a great way to repurpose some ingredients"
or the mind set of "hahaha look at those stupid round eyes eating our garbage!!!"

>>7058294
>hahaha look at those stupid round eyes eating our garbage

to be fair, 95% of the menu in Chinese-American restaurants is made with this mindset, nevermind any extras they give out

I know they hate me :/ but I stick up for them!
america has a long history of racism towards asians, arguably more so than towards blacks. and it's without a doubt more institutionalized in todays society.

I just sort of have always respected the forgiveness, because they could be way more butthurt about some of the shit that went on than they are, and would be completely justified.
