“Authentic USA Chinese food” 🫠

George Bacon686 :
The UK knows it’s not authentic and appreciates it for what it is. The US believes its version is authentic and belittles UK dishes because they believe it’s inferior and less authentic. The whole thing sums up the differences in nations perfectly

The sad part of it is that the Chinese takeaways here in Britain are owned by chinese people who move here and adapted their cooking to the British palette. We have such affection for our Chinese takeaways, and it’s one of the better examples of cultures merging that this country actually has.

I think the difference is we don't pretend it's authentic in the uk

It's a weird bit of Tiktok culture war. I like a spice bag, but nobody thinks it's authentic. Also, most of this fusion food is invented and cooked by Asian people.

The idea of trashing either or making fun of either is indirectly making fun of those who immigrated long ago and had to manage in cultures hostile to them. Sure the cuisines aren’t authentic to the original cuisine but both can still be enjoyed and recognised as good food. If you want an authentic meal from a cuisine you’re best heading to the country it’s home to!

I’ve always said Irish and British Chinese food would actually translate well to china. They love KFC so a spice bag would be a step up

Whatever it is, British Chinese food is a cornerstone of most British communities, especially working class areas. Fantastic stuff, especially shared with the family.

its horrible, I saw just today thousands hating an a Chinese woman because her name is British not Chinese and she named her Chinese shop after her name. Saying they'll never eat a Chinese at a place that doesn't have a Chinese name

It's ironic because even though it is not traditional Chinese food, it is Chinese food. Because the Chinese were the ones that changed their food, they created it for the English market. So it's not English. The people that came up with it were Chinese, which makes it Chinese food. Which I find hilarious, but really I really love it.

We know it’s not authentic. We said it’s better. The Chinese came up with it. Get at them. Pouring curry is crazyyyy

I would also like to add, that as the number of Chinese students in the UK increases, authentic Chinese restaurants are now popping up all over the place, so you have the best of both worlds now.

i think we all know it's not authentic. Honestly 99% of british Chinese are owned by Chinese people and I think they are well apreaciated by the community. You can't be annoyed at someone for adapting to the market to make better money while still incorporating traditional elements

I tried telling my fellow British people this very thing in a comments section the other day and got about 5 people trying to claim that it is traditional Chinese food 🤣 I spent best part of 3 months in Changzhou, Shanghai, Huangshan, Wuxi, didn’t see a glimpse of a chicken ball 🤣

British Chinese food is a story of migration, inventiveness, resourcefulness and resilience. Taking flavours and recipes and adapting them to a new place, which really enjoys it! And then influences the culture of their new home in turn. Food is really a story of people.

They honestly believe we think it’s authentic Chinese cuisine. We know it isn’t !! But it’s yummy scrummy and that’s all that matters. ☺️

I wish Chinese takeaway food in the UK was more authentic. I do like the British version now and again but I want chicken feet and fish haha

the difference between British and Americans in this situation is British people know our Chinese food isn't traditional Chinese food

As a USA citizen, non of us think it’s authentic we just think it’s better than what the uk is offering.
