Americans don't want to eat actual real Chinese food. The same goes for real mexican food.


Most of the chinese and mexican places in america are made to be american dishes resembling other countries.


Take the burrito for example.. its not really a dish made in mexico, but it tastes and looks like a mexican dish.

So you're telling me they don't serve some sort of filling rolled up in a tortilla in Mexico?

I think about this every time I watch the original Iron Chef...even though it's world class chefs, never looks like anything I'd ever want to eat. Not saying I wouldn't try it, but it's never anything I'd be excited to eat.
