Well you probably won't die right away... 
Chinese food' as prepared in most American/Chinese restaurants, is loaded with fat. However, if you are careful and choose wisely you should be fine. Try Thai food... better tasting and healthier too.

Better tasting? i dont know about that. general gows spicy chicken and the Long gragon egg rolls kick ass.
Tso's??? Deep fried and soaked in sugar...

Yes, only there are usually little tiny pieces of meat in the center. A few grams of protein to go with your empty calories. :devil:
Explain what this "FOOD" is i never heard of it.
Just remember 4 star is the best, don't let anyone talk you out of it.
Ah... you wise man.
okie dokie, i dont even know if the place i go to has it.
Nemesis, if you want to try authentic Chinese food (no bobo balls and electric red sauce), go to Chee-Lin in the Brewery Market (Hfx), or Fran's in Dartmouth.
There are two Thai and two excellent Vietnamese restaurants downtown too.

yuuummmmm thai food. yummy.
Almost every chinese restaurant has a "steamed foods" section on the menu, which still tastes pretty good(once you get used to it anyway 
). I usually get steamed chicken and snow peas if I have to eat chinese.
Ask if they have brown rice instead of white too, which some places have but not all. White rice has been stripped of its nutrients.
Vietnamese is my favorite...so yummy and the meats are barbecued, not fried.

Since I found a couple great Thai restaurants, I don't even want to eat Chinese food anymore.

Sounds good.
He he he ... only if they're out of "make me cry" and "blood sweat and tears". Some like it hot, and by some I mean me

i agree.. Thai food is way better than chinese ( and i would think slightly better for you)! I often have thai once a week!
That's cuz you've never had real chinese food! All that shopping mall steam table crap can't even be called Chinese food. 90% of the items on the menu can't even be found in China. The only thing those places and Chinese food have in common is the rice.
