General Tso's is Chinese food? :slappy:

IF somebody says Tso is their favorite, you know at least one thing - that person has never been to a real Chinese place in their life.

Actually Tibs, I've never seen a real Chinese place. All of the "Chinese" food here is so Americanized that it might as well be American food. Chop Suey never existed before Chinatown was built in California.

General Tso's Chicken

He's always been my favorite Chinese General/Character in Romance of the Three Kingdoms but I don't dig on his Chicken

Cao Cao
Simplified Chinese: 曹操
Traditional Chinese: 曹操
Pinyin: Cáo Cāo
Wade-Giles: Ts'ao Ts'ao
Zi: Mengde (孟德)
Infant name: A-Man (阿瞞)
Temple Name: Wudi (武帝) or Taizu (太祖)
Posthumous name: Wu (武)

Cao Cao (曹操; Pinyin: Cáo Cāo) (155 – 220), whose name is also often transliterated and should be correctly pronounced as Ts'ao Ts'ao, was a regional warlord and the last Chancellor of Eastern Han Dynasty who rose to great power during the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty in ancient China. As one of the central figures of the Three Kingdoms period, he laid down foundations for what was to become Cao Wei and was posthumously titled Emperor Wu of Wei (魏武帝). Although generally characterized as a cruel and suspicious character in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and other folk cultures, the historic Cao Cao was a brilliant ruler, military strategist and poet.
