MSG is oh so bad for you...
Thanks to this thread I will be going to Sam's club tomorrow to buy a case of cup noodles ... 30 for $6!

It's not bad for you.
That's myth.

looks like not bad in moderation or if you react to it personally... but what isn't that way

(Oct 24 05, 02:07)I disagree. I dont think they're terrible, they just aint very good! I dont like it, except for a few select dishes. Anyone who would spoon sythetic crap into their food (good for you or not) is frankly doing it wrong.

Thai food is how it should be done.. for that style...

i can find it in my heart to love almost any regional cuisine unconditionally, especially if it's done to a high standard, but the vast majority of chinese food leaves me completely cold.
schezuan and dim sum are two notable exceptions.
putting corn starch in soups and sauces to make them the consistency of homeless wino phlegm is not necessary.

Dude when I say Chinese cooks, I'm not talking about those in the US. I'm talking those authentic ones in mainland China who cook traditional dishes.
No MSG from them.
Food fit for an emperor.

that's probably why i like schezuan and dim sum, spongebob. they're the only types of chinese cuisine i've ever had made by a half decent chef (in nyc, both times).
but if you can get decent italian, thai, haute french, vietnamese, cambodian, ghanaian, ukranian and salvadoran cuisine outside of those countries, i should hope an entity the size of fucking china could muster up a few chefs for export who know how to do something besides fry a rubber chicken with some rubber cement and blast the whole goddamned mess with msg so that you don't notice it's the consistency of ectoplasm and tastes like old ladies.

I've eaten in some pretty reputable places in my time spongebob.. and it's never really impressed. I have never been to china though.
Crispy Duck is as far it goes for me.

Awww you folks really ought to pop by Singapore some day.
It's got all sorts of cuisines... including good Chinese one

i really want to! because i know that it can be amazing. century in harlem was one of the best meals of my life.
and crispy duck pancakes are awsome. i bet there's so much that china has to offer the palates of the world!

the last chinese I had was enough to put me off for life actually.
I couldn't tell if the chicken actually was chicken... it was just wrong.

what nation is responsible for all these "noodle time" places huh?
What a crock of shit. The only decent place like that I found was in Brixton... thai I think.
