The butter knives? Do you sharpen those or something?

I eat those with same forks and spoons I use for other food.
Y’all, these Simple Truth protein bowls deliver.
Good texture, density, and flavor. Tasted better than some restaurants.

Hot take: If you go to a Chinese restaurant and General Tso’s Chicken is even on the menu, there is a 90% chance the restaurant is shit.
Well I’m still surprised that a frozen store dinner tasted better than that.

You probably know this but that dish is completely American. You basically can’t find it outside the country.
we have a similar one called Ginger Beef.
Many to most Asian sauces have some sugar in them. The fact that you don’t like sweetened sauces means your opinions in general about Asian food probably wouldn’t be representative for the average person.
Gen Tso’s is great, why are we even mad about.

Some of my fondest grad school memories are going to dive Chinese food places with my Taiwanese friends. They have those bowls at Kroger. I might get me some Tso’s for old time’s sake.
Your cutlery complaints are all 100% correct, but it looks like you live in a museum or perhaps a freshly-reset AirBNB.
Meanwhile in the real world, mine looks like this:
There’s obviously some attempt at organization, but there are at least 5 different kinds of spoons, and 3 different forks, none of which stack together, so we are left with relative chaos. At least the handles all point south.
That 4th slot holds an assortment of offbeat items, some oversized spoons, some undersized forks and knives, and one weird long spoon that is ideal for e.g., retrieving the last stuffed olive from the bottom of a tall jar.
I feel like there a metaphor for life somewhere in this drawer: entropy always wins.

i get general tso every now and then and just add vinegar and chilli powder to make it work.
The true history of General Tso’s is in this splendid documentary.

Reminds me of a comedian imagining two Chinese generals meeting on the battlefield:
“General Tso, love your chicken!”
“And yours to my friend!”

Nothing wrong with a little Chinese-American comfort food. Gimme some General Tso and cream cheese wontons, extra MSG please.

Once I found Sesame Chicken I stopped experimenting with other American-Chinese dishes, I had found heaven. Imagine my surprise when I noticed it is always labeled as spicy on menus, I’ve never had it when there was any heat to it. Only occasionally broccoli…
