10 Benefits of Eating Chinese Food



1)      It’s the perfect TV watching food. Nothing too crispy to overpower the sound of the TV, perfect balance of savory and sweet, nice chewy noodles that are perfect for munching on while contemplating The Doctor’s next move…
2)      The first bite makes your heart smile. Nevermind that the last bite makes you feel desperate and sad and also a bit guilty now that you’re mopping up the leftover sauce with your finger…You can always order more!
3)      If all you’ve eaten all day are sodium free foods, it provides at least a day’s worth of sodium! If you have eaten salt all day, then you have enough sodium for tomorrow!
4)      It satisfies one’s craving for sweet, salty, crunchy, chewy, and greasy, all in one!
5)      General Tso’s sauce makes eating broccoli more fun than does Hidden Valley Ranch.
6)      Fortune cookies: free therapy session.
7)      Induces sleepiness, and sleep is imperative for a healthy brain and body. Therefore we can assume that Chinese food is healthy!
8)      It tastes good cold. Better than cold pizza.
9)      It’s a delicious example of America’s impeccable knack for turning a traditionally healthy food culture into a cheap guilty pleasure.
10)  Its deliciousness distracts from life’s problems for a little while.


This man's face speaks truth.

Now that you have ten reasons to pick up the phone and order 25 crab rangoons, a quart of hot and sour soup, and 3 orders of General Tso's chicken confidently, go on! For cheap and sinfully delicious Chinese, I recommend Hong Kong on Hard Rd. and Smokey Row Rd.  Their food is consistent, they offer hot tea while you wait (i don't know about you, but free hot tea is definitely a deal breaker), it's family owned, and they have a lunch special of basically any dish you want with a side of rice and any soup for just $4.75! I have yet to find a better deal than that.

Hungrily yours,
Celina.
