'Eating Chinese food on Christmas is damn near as American as apple pie. It’s a fact, Jews have been eating Chinese food on Christmas since the early 20th century. The two groups were often pushed to the outskirts of American culture, but the Chinese and Jews found solace in one another during Christmas, a time of year when it could be easy to feel out of place. Regardless of the history, Chinese-American food is dank. Sure, General Tso’s Chicken isn’t authentically Chinese, but what does that matter? Chinese-American food was created by grizzled Chinese immigrants with a dream to build better lives for their families; the food that they created for the American palate is a direct expression of their hard-work and ability to adapt. Okay, I’m done… sorry egg rolls just really fire me up. Let’s cook.
