American Food from what I can gather must contain MSG’s and if eaten constantly will cause certain medical problems.

What is American food, anyway? I grew up here and I still haven’t figured it out. Or maybe it’s that I don’t want to believe that it’s burgers and potroast and uh… potatoes? I eat “ethnic” food for almost every meal.

I just got home, and am in a rickshaw on my way back to my place. It sure is nice here in China.
