Wonder Why You're Hungry After Chinese Food?

I'm sure we'll still frequent our local (and amazing!) Chinese take-out place. (Yeah, I know it's not really Chinese.) It's delicious, it's fast, easy, inexpensive...and we like supporting neighborhood sole-proprietors.

But, I thought this was interesting...

I'm not a dietitian, nor do I play one on TV. But, this gals is. She says that MSG is an appetite stimulant. Did you guys know that? I didn't.

Here's the direct link for that video.

So, I guess that's another reason to cook your own food at home. And, since many stores now carry an "Asian veggie blend" right in your frozen food section - it's easier than ever.

If I'm in a rush, I think I'll just ask the nice lady behind the counter to leave the MSG out of my beef with broccoli :)

What's your favorite "Chinese" food?
