**** Many foreigners are surprised when they first eat the food in China. Especially on the east coast or in the north of China. The truth is the Chinese takeaway food we are used to eating back in Europe and America is actually Cantonese food and often layered with sugary sweeteners and MSG. The Chinese are very proud of their longstanding culinary and dining traditions. So do not be surprised when your Chinese friend ignores the chicken breast in favor of chicken feet or chastises you for throwing away offal or bone, which they consider a delicacy.
